MAHOSTRIDERDG 0 Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 I use mine as a daily driver and put up bout 300miles a week driving to work mostly..When it runs right it is a dream to drive..It puts a subtle smile on my face every day...But when it gives trouble..I feel like throwing myself off the roof ...Its always expensive to fix and always takes weeks to get done....My girlfriend has told me to sell it 3 times and my parents constantly wreck my head bout the cost of runnin it....I always tell them "its mine...its never for sale...my kids will drive it someday"..drives them nuts.....So far ive had to replace the clutch and gear box..Rebuilt the engine after a heat seizure ..refurb 3 of the 4 alloys twice (shit Irish roads)...and now the 2 front shocks are f--ked... I had big plans for the new year til i found out this morn i am on a 3 day week for the next 3 months....cant life bite you in the ass Link to post Share on other sites
