Does anyone else ever advertise there car for sale, then drive it and not want to sell it?

I have my XE for sale, because i know deep down its the right thing to do for a few reasons.
But everytime i drive it i realise why i built it and that its just plain awesome.

Am i an emotional wreck?

Aye I keep thinking of selling the ibiza then I go fix a little niggle thats annoyin me like a rattle etc or I go get something to change it a big ( last time was 3/4 pkate and HID's) and i like it again
I think if I did sell it I wouldnt want it localcause would hate seeing it about and probably want it back

If your having 2nd thoughts I just wouldnt sell it just incase you did sell it and regret it. Unless you have to sell it for circumstances etc

Yeah, i had my CTR up and a guy came and viewed and he ended up offering me 100 under my asking price and i still wouldn't take it.

Same with the S2000 - bad habit
