Very close to genuinely pissing myself.

Thing is though, to the people who said ''why spend that money'' when you actually move on and think back you do ask yourself the question or atleast i know i have.

Car washing ones:
You missed a bit
You'll take the paint off that
You'll make it rain
You can do mine next
etc etc

Also i always get:
Why do you always have to take it apart?

Its called maintaining it ffs!

Also:
You spent how much on new wheels?!

Yeah about the same as i would cost for a new set of tyres

This! Does my f**king tree in! I'm the only person at my work really into cars. Nearly every day, I get it, "what you doing tonight? Out cruising? Burning some petrol? Wasting money?"

"yeah I might go see a few mates for abit, what you doing?"

"Nothing planned, just watching T.V"

And I'm the one with no life for going out and socialising am I?

You've got it in one tbh

"Bit of a girls car isn't it?"
"Who's gold (or orange) Mazda is that?" Morons at work say that all the time.
"I bet thats fun in the snow"

In general:
"Whats your MPG like?" The hell does it matter?
"Bit impractical sn't it?"

I know that feeling, I used to come up my road making loads of noise in my 12v and never considered anyone else, now there is a lad who comes up my street in a 1.1 saxo with big exhaust etc and it pisses me off so much.

Always get the washing car lines..

The most annoying one for me is, why are you spending that much on a corsa. :@ STFU maybe because.. umm.. i like it!

Most of the time its by people who think there good in a new car even though its on finance.
