Piece Of Shit Car!!!
Dammit!! Stupid car broke down tonight. Cracked the pump of my radiator. It's gonna set me back $300+!! Then i think i have to get my head gasket repaired. Thats another $700+!!
Grrr... so pissed off!! My cars insured for $3000 so i'm thinking if someone wants to head over to Adelaide and steal an 84 Celica then they are more than welcome. I'll even leave the keys in the ignition for you, vacuum and polish it too.
Then there friggin rego ($400+) and insurance ($300+)..... ahhhhh!! Looks like i'm gonna have to max out my credit card to make Two Tribes this year?
Anyone else get pissed of at cars / car expenses?!!?

And to think Phil accuses me of being the TA drunkard.... sif I would ever touch booze.
I'm not as think as you drunk I am... honest ociffer!
Er, and on the topic of cars, mine sucks too. I bought it only to learn that the air-con was fucked (good bye $800) and right now it says that the doors are open even when they clearly are not. Good fun driving down the Eastern freeway at night with your interior door lights on.... no, really.....

1986 RX-7:
2 engine rebuilds in 4 years (x3000 each)
4 years of insurance (x1200 each)
1 diff (x1200)
1 gearbox (x1000)
3 clutches (x400 each)
--------------------------------------------------
LOTS OF WASTED MONEY FOR 4 YEARS!!!
--------------------------------------------------
1985 Nissan Pulsar:
$400 for car
$400 for roadworthy
$300 for maintenance so far...
--------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------
The RX-7 was a beautiful car... just very expensive to maintain... plenty of fun to drive and great handling... awesome looks... shame really... i'll get one again when i can afford to keep it...
The Pulsar is a P.O.S. car that gets me from A to B (and C on the odd occasion).
