my car annoys me because...

the lad that owned the car before me wasnt too bright, he installed one speaker properly and the other using wood screws and epoxy resin,

he fitted plastic fake alloys and didnt give me the old ones!

he broke the temperature knob

and put in a bright green toggle switch that i have no idea what its connected to (seems to do nothing!)

he decided to try and paint the front arches black and cocked them right up (only smart thing he did was leave the back ones alone!!!!),

O yea, when im at high speed and brake my steering column shakes the entire car.

Apart from that im chuffed with the car.

Hmm wot annoys me about my car eh? Well like quite a lot of people- where do I start...

*Corsa annoys me because
-it has had a fook load of engine problems since I put the 2.0 in.
-it currently has no engine in
-due to this I shall be missing MaxP more than likely (well names been crossed off list so )
-I am still bloody waiting for ONE FRIGGIN hose from PVD

*Xr2 fiesta annoys me because
-the seats are uncomfy
-I gave my CD player headunit to my Dad and therefore have no tunes

And that's it really!

The things that annoy me about my car is that it isn't a Vr6 Corrado!

Simple as that, dont get me wrong the corsa has served me amazingly well but i need more car, corsas too slow and too small.

I need my arches rolled as they scrub on full lock and at the back going over bumps,

2 dents have appeared in the bonnet, small but i notice that they are there,

the fact that it is soooooooo slow with 17s on (1.2 16v), as well as the fact that the steering is quite wobbly and I think I need new back shocks due to the great (NOT) quality of gmax springs.

short servicing intervals, fuel consumption and the fact I can't leave it anywhere without being worried/having people looking at it - knew all this and it's a small price to pay for the big it gives me everytime I drive it
