Am I an Idiot?

[mikeraz1]

I was down my local earlier and we got talking cars. After talking for a while about my 89' Coupe quattor and how much I'd spent on parts in the last few months (About £2200) one of the local p*ss heads decided I was a idiot, and insisted it was stupid spending that much money on an old car.

Does anyone else get told this kind of nonsense? Or do you agree?

ask your mate how much money he's lost on depreciation on his newer car

You're amongst friends here. I doubt anyone here would agree with the rantings of your local p*ss head. If its any consolation, there are plently of folks on here that have spent just as much as you if not more. Myself included.

As above and you have got to remember, it's your car and you can spend as much feckin money as you want on it.

I was trying to make that point but was wasting my time.

All the time. Bought a spare car and running costs for less than the depreciation on my Mum's car. She can't understand that tho, most people don't understand depreciation till it's time to buy another **** euro box diseasel. Ha ha, we win cos we're different.

LOOK AT MY SIGNATURE.

Basically the statement "Your an idiot for spending that on an old car" can be viewed as "I'm an idiot for not being able to maintain an older car"

This guy is basically passing judgement on a subject he dose not understand

Not worth listening to

Keep the faith

If it was ever about the amount of money we spent i suspect very few of us would still be owners of these cars, i know im not gonna add up the bills, and ive only just started on mine!

[mikeraz1]

By the end of this month I'll have spent about £3000 which includes buying the car and having loads done. This is only be begining

No, you're not.

It's your money and you're not hurting anyone by spending it on an older car. Don't be swayed by a motor mouth.

Kind regards.
