I bought my ibiza about a month ago, its a very nice car and good to drive etc. Im unsure whether to sell up or not? I go back to uni in about a month which is a 70mile round trip 3 or more times a week. Do people think i should get more of a runaround economical motor? Its not really a student car in my prospective, im having to work more hours to maintain it, when really i should be cutting hours down to work harder in the last year. I dunno what to do , any advice? John

if you drive it sensibly the 1.8t is quite economical, obvioulsy not as good as a tdi

True but then if your going to need to work your tits off to afford it & not have the time to get the course work done why bother

it does, but ive done two years now. I wouldn't say uni is for losers either sooty, majority of people who have degrees often have good advantage in the job market. It will be a bit worrying leaving it in the uni car park, dents in the door could happen etc.
tempted to put it on autotrader, done 20k miles. what could i get for it in peoples opinions?

thats a disallusion and a disallusion i realised quickly and left, unless your studying for a doctorate or something of equal level a uni degree will generall get you fuck all.
Experience is where its at

I wish i hadnt gone uni, it a waste of time imo. But it seemed a good idea after sixth form. The lecturers brainwash you into thinking having a degree is better than not having one
