I don't think its stupid you've got to spend your money on something so might as well be on something you enjoy

Yeah most of my mates always say at least I've got something to show for it... (i.e. didn't piss it up against the wall )

Exactly. How can it be a waste of money if you've got something you love and you've had a great time making it.

if you think about how much you have spent on your cars, just imagine the sort of car you could have now

Yup if I spent four years saving for a car without having one and not having anything to do because rather then spending it on my car id be saving for the amazing car I could buy in four years time. It doesn't work like that.

Agreed Wow someone on the same wavelength as me! And it's not as if that money has been splurged all in one go on my car (I can't speak for everyone else tho!) if it had that would be a different story!

But I have to say one thing if I didn't spend money on my car I would most definitely have more shoes, handbags, clothes etc etc
