opinions please - declantg - 09-07-2012
so if you have me on fb you will know my car is f*cked, again. Alternators gone and also got 2 flat tires, also think the turbo is knackered aswell as various knocks and bangs.
Question is what the f do I do with it? Can't decide whether to break it or just flog off cheap.
also what car to get? I have been looking at civics and crx's but it has to be.
-reliable
-cheap to buy
-nice looking
-low insurance as I'm 19
-cheap to run

just get it bloody well fixed! I really have no idea why your car seems so shit compared to the rest of them! If its an alternator and 2 flat tyres then just get it sorted! Spend less dollar on the natural substances and more on the car!

I brought an overpriced piece of shit say no more,

Perfect time to put a bigger turbo on if your GT15 is on the way out. And any car can get flat tyres
RE: opinions please - David - 09-07-2012
I have to agree with Dan! here. you can pick up a TD04 rather cheap! I got mine off Ebay for £25 posted! when you fix it you will love it even more!
RE: opinions please - declantg - 09-07-2012
All fair point!
I have decided im going to get it fixed, skirts on and give it a whole weekend of love and affection,
then hopefully love will come back
RE: opinions please - Dan! - 09-07-2012
Get yourself a big turbo too, il be up to fittting it with you in a few weeks.....
RE: opinions please - declantg - 09-07-2012
oh sweet! well i just had a job interview and think it went ok, so hopefully get that then can afford some shinys
RE: opinions please - David - 09-07-2012
Mate my car has given me and Dan! no end of problems but in the end its always worth it!
And Dan! not before you fit mine
RE: opinions please - Eeyore - 09-07-2012
good to hear youre fixing it. In all honesty youre better off fixing it up instead of buying another shitter with just as many problems!
RE: opinions please - Scott - 09-07-2012
Glad to hear you're fixing it mate, I know it can be frustrating when things start to go wrong but at least they're pretty cheap to fix, and you have awesome people like Dan offering to change the turbo for you!
RE: opinions please - declantg - 09-07-2012

RE: opinions please - Dan! - 09-07-2012

Cars will always get you down mate. When something goes wrong you have to think if the good times. When some things go just think can it now be improved.
. My pas pump is on its way out rattling like mad. Peugeot want £260 motor factors want £145 if I take mine I get £25 off. So trying to find a second hand one. But I thought it was something in the cam belt cover so would of been whole new cam belt kit and water pump again.

Better the devil you no than the one you dont. You could give up anf buy another car then in 2 months have a few issues with the new motor and be in the same boat. And be more out of pocket and pissed of than what you are with this one. And trust me nothing jap will be as easy/cheap to fix as a dt and on top of that you wont get as much power for your insurence money in jap. Think about it
