Not sure I'll ever be able to redeem myself, I've sold the "Granny beige 2 door" and needed wheels, there was a 4 door close at hand so i snapped it up..
what ever will i do.. now there's 3 blue 4 doors over here, plus all the red wagons.. haha

Or worse a maroon integra with clear altezza tail lights! :)
(I don't know if that joke applies over there but here in NZ every little wannabe boy racer seems to have a early 90's(?) maroon integra with clear tail lights, they are everywhere!)

so often i see the victims and sufferers of the upgrade to plastic cars syndrome.
There is something nostalgic and sensual about owning a classic and once its gone you become angry at the lack of soul and character these new performance cars have and soon start suffering the beginning of depression, anxiety that can lead to procrastination. The rawness and simplicity of old cars is too hard to live without. Especially in a complicated world with soul-less and heartless plastic conveniences dulling all your senses to complete boredom.

I'm exactly the same. The only "new" car I've owned was a sentra gt cup car. That was cool for a while but eventually I couldn't handle it anymore and just had to get another old car. I now have a b310 stocker sedan as a daily. Its slow but I love it

Unreal, cant believe that you sold the almost granny spec. It did have the kitchen table special under the hood. Did you every chuck on the twin webers that she deserved?
Is the new new home a member on this site, or new convert? Still, I am sure that it has gone to a good home, or ELSE! Now on the blue 4 door, well at least Daisy will have a friend, along with Wendy too. They can all have a chat together over a cup of tea and scones perhaps, and talk about what the neighbours are doing.
