cookiesvw 0 Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 Should it stay or should it go.I have had my vr for prob 8 months now and love it to bits but i drive a company van 6 days a week and only use the vr on weekends and it not always everyweekend.i have spent allot of money sorting little bits out that would have only got worse,so my wallet has seen better times lol i have sold the tt comps so its on standard solitudes at the mo.Sometimes i wonder if i just use it at the weekends because i have it.wos after some advice or if anyone has a good home for it, it may have to go. :| Link to post Share on other sites

six appeal 53 Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 Know what you mean mate, have felt this for a few weeks myself now. In fact I always feel like this about this time every year! I'm putting it down to the show season being over and the crap weather!Simon. Link to post Share on other sites

Seademon 0 Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 After driving my sisters 1.6 Fiesta Ghia for 2 weeks I dont need anyone to remind me why I should be keeping mine! Keep it mate - it must be that seasonal disorder thing that people get when the clocks go back! Link to post Share on other sites
jezmoz 0 Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 it must be that seasonal disorder thing that people get when the clocks go back! exactly , come spring summer and show time what you gonna do when you've sold the dub?? Go to a ford show? %-6 , seen a few on ed38 sell up and thier posts seem to be one of huge regret!!! People spend thousands getting there car right then sell it, to some nob who will probably hit a wall or to someone who isn't into the scene who will let it rot! Where's the sense in that, it's already been said above you'll never get what you've spent on it back and someone will get a ready made vr6 !!! Link to post Share on other sites
badboyV6 4 Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 keep it mate- you'll deffo regret it - when i sold my first one i was gutted for about 12 months- this was the amount of time it took me to finally get another one :-) (and then another ;-)) Link to post Share on other sites
dubloke 4 Posted November 8, 2005 Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 i am feeling the same as well tbh, tho i've had mine longer than most now. feel its time for a change, but i always get the same over winter. still, it will defo be going next year at some point as the projects nearing completion and i never buy the same car twice!

Keep it mate - it must be that seasonal disorder thing that people get when the clocks go back! I agree with Mr Demon ya should go and drive a friend's car for a week or 2 and believe me ya miss the VR.Ya should treat it like a women and get in it 4 times a day a take her to heaven and back 8) Link to post Share on other sites
jezmoz 0 Posted November 8, 2005 Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 yeah i had a hire car after some nob wacked me in the back, an astra 1.6 with 170 miles on the clock, was like a hair dryer, no pull at all and a super light clutch!! Was glad to get back in my sturdy tank and hear that roar again ! Link to post Share on other sites
ingham 5 Posted November 8, 2005 Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 i have put mine into garage for winter all wrapped up to keep it dry.missing it already Link to post Share on other sites
cookiesvw 0 Posted November 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 didnt expect to get all these replys, i dont think selling my wheels helped as it looks allot diff. and it seems like its just a winter thing from what everyone is sayin.... Link to post Share on other sites
francisjonno 2 Posted November 8, 2005 Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 Definitely a winter thing. For me it normally lasts until the first show of the year!Spending money on the 'pride & joy' does provide temporary relief in the meantime Link to post Share on other sites
vdubgirl 3 Posted November 8, 2005 Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 When its gone you'll miss it!Trust me I've been without mine for 9 months now and I'm despereate to get it back so much so I even went to where I'm keeping all its stripped out bits and started to stoke my leather interior sad or what!I have to admit the only thing I havent missed is taking it to the petrol station every five mins lol But that aside I WANT MY CAR BACK So dont sell it if you have a little inckling that you would miss it Link to post Share on other sites

silverline 0 Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 i hired a 55 reg corsa sri for work once, done about 200 miles in it that day and could not wait to get back in the vr! i was shocked how after 11 years the vr can still feel smoother, tighter and more comfortable than a brand new car!!!!

six appeal 53 Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 Spent 3 hours cleaning mine last night (as not had a chance since E38 show!) and then went to No-Rice, and realised why I love the VR so much! Winter Blues are gone!Simon Link to post Share on other sites
