And you haven't convinced her to sell up and get an e39?

My missus also has a Corsa Diesel. She bought a brand new one (on 5 years 0% finance no less) and it's one of those "unlimited editions" as so many are about - in white with black bits.

I quite like it to look at though lol

As you can guess I left her to it with the car purchase

You need to work harder on getting her to come around to your way of thinking, God know's you try hard enough here at times, yet you've been with this women ...several years right ? ...speaking of which, how has she not put an axe through your skull yet

./plays the words smallest violin.

Then you have no idea how lucky you are in some respects, you have true freedom. No compromise, nothing ...it's all just about you still and there is a hell of a lot to be said for that.

The only reason I bought a big red shouty muscle car was to attract a mate.

That's the best part of being single -

No one to answer to or seek permission from when you want a new toy.

e.g. I want one of those vintage microphone as a paper weight just because it looks cool

Ideally I want one that's broken so get it cheap.

hohoho, that's a keeper for five years time when you're mortgaged and buying scatter cushions.

Sometimes I'd agree, others I'd strongly disagree.

Anyway, before this place goes all "Our Tune"....

Or if you do particularly well you find one who encourages you...I had my 1st Impreza when I met my (now) Mrs which she loved and she actively encouraged me to buy the XFR.

And why wouldn't she. The point is that you both encourage each other to enjoy life not try and keep the other down because you don't agree with whatever personal choices they may want to make. Provided you don't do daft things like not pay the bills because you had to have that new toy, but then thats not a girlfriend thing thats a common sense thing.

Indeed, but having a Mrs who is as much into cars as I am also helps...

Some recent changes to my 335i.

J1nxy · 23 Dec 2011 at 16:39

Looks nice, apart from would prefer the wheels to be a shadow chrome type of finish as black just makes it too dark.
