Had my car now since late Sept02, had it all done up in late march, so its approaching a year ive had it all done up...
And I dont know if Im gettin fed up of it now, It's a 1.2 SXi so it doesnt go anywhere (I had serious trouble pulling away from a 1.0 polo this morning!!!) I think it looks really nice (Pictures Here no doubt some of you will hate the exhausts tho, most do!!) Its got everything I want doin to it done, except the ICE, just got an MP3 Headunit in that I had in my (dearly departed) 306.
Thing is I cant really afford to have anything else done at the mo cause Ive just gone self employed so I need to save everything cause I dont know when cheques are comin in and the lot...
My insurance is up for renewal in July so I was thinking of getting shut and getting something a little older but faster. But then I think to myself "Noooo dont do it, you like it so much"
AARRRGGHHHHH WHAT DO I DO?!?!?!?

I Had the same problem about three months ago, In the end i Decided that i would be taking a backwards step if i was to sell up and buy an older car.
Instead i have decided to keep the car another 18-20 months then it's three years old. And buy a faster car around the same kinda age, 52 / 03 plate Astra Sri or Clio 172.
Really like your car not 100% sure on the Zorsts each to there own though!!
Hope my comments help
