God damn!
Well, you're a big, hard Northerner so I know I'm not gonna be able to make you understand.
But apart from the fact there are certain places I need to be almost everyday which are impossible without a car (you live in the city/town right? Try living 12 miles from town - where a taxi would cost £25 one way just to town, and busses don't come often, or go to the right places). But mainly it was really f*cking with my other 'issues' atm...you dont want to have seen the state of my toilet, or arse, last week, trust me on that. Then Sam said I was welcome to use his HDi if I could fix it....well, seeing as its 45mins to Sams in the car, I wouldn't like to walk it lol. So my theory was buy a cheap car which should sell on easily (and lets face it, the toyota is under 10 years old, low milage and has a years MOT, can't be hard to sell on). Run it for a few weeks while sorting 'things' out and fixing the HDi, then swap to the HDi for a few months, while looking for my own HDi, breaking the Golf so I've got more money for a decent HDi and getting other things sorted out (the ball started rolling just before the Golf broke....).
Unfortunately the Golf breaking couldn't have come at a worse time in all honesty, but it happened and cant be changed, as someone said last week - make a decision and stick to it, right or wrong - so I did what I thought made the most sense and what was within my limits atm.

I must admit, I was tempted to ask if he'd do this - I'd hope we can trust eachother enough by now to do that, but obviously that'd stick an extra 2 owners on the car, which Sam might not want to do. Dunno if it sounds a bit cheeky to ask though - although obviously he can read this anyway lol.

We all kno that once the police ANPR flags up that you dont have insurance and they try to stop you, you coal them so they cant see anything then find some brilliant twisty roads....306 is a great get away car providing it doesnt break down!
im joking btw.....dont do this unless you live by my reasoning for having points on my licence. Points mean prizes! (and fines)
Don't wanna tempt fate but I don't have any points, yet.
And its a standard HDi.....coaling isn't gonna happen!

Is that all? - I remember paying £1800 on a 1.4 on my second year!! Just because it was lowered with an induction cone.

then my 600 ninja with my 9 years no claims is £90 for the year on a limited milage policy but really i got the car as my daily so the bike is when i feel like fun
Mutlicar worked out crap for me on two cars, and for me, my mum and step dad on our entire driveway full lol...obviously it works better for some than others though!
