Where Does The Time Go?

[Gordy75]

Does anyone else regularly go check something on theyre car however insignificant and end up spending 2-3 hrs sorting out random things and experimenting? even though everythings running fine!

[jonnnnnnnnnnnno]

Yes all the time even when it was just pumping up the shoes i end up cleaning or tinkering around probs not even doing anything but i enjoy it haha

Are you my brother or something!?

Dude I'm always saying to myself that I'll clean the engine bay or something, but I always end up painting parts or removing panels! :D

Agreed -

And neighbours say I'm wasting my time - yet ...

... when they have a problem with their car guess who's door they knock wanting assitance!

i'm afraid that happens to me all the time - my response is always the same - lick the back o' them!

yeap, might be cleaning the inside, then decide 'oh, must do something with that squeeky clutch',

or when i was replacing bulbs in the dash i had the whole centre console out so thought 'huuummm, must give under there a clean' haha

[Gordy75]

Haha, glad im not the only one!

also it takes time to do the job properly!

I also have the neighbour problem, when i first got my car sum little c#*t tried to steal my car which ruined all my door

locks so i had to get in through the boot! :ffs: :censor:

my neighbour kept on telling me to scrap it and buy a brand new car like he had, the difference being that 6 months later with

my car sorted and his car actually getting stolen (didnt get past the front door on my car! ) he asked me to sell my now

apparently 'sweet motor' with good profit on my side but i turned him down straight away!

This was a year ago before i had to take mine off the road for financial issues but ive never regreted keeping her!
