So, I have got a bit of an issue and I would like some opinions.
Basically with the track car project coming up early next year, I will be needing a car that I can tow with. I'll stick up another thread at some point soon about what cars you guys would recommend for that. Now, if we lived in a perfect world, I could get insured on my parents X-Trail and just use that whenever I needed to tow the track car. However, the policy that the car is on, means I can not get insured on it until I was 25. Also, my mum has business insurance on it, meaning it would be quite expensive.
I would not be able to afford to buy/insure/maintain another car, so I do not think I would able to keep my current DT.
With the modifications and the state that my car is in, the only way in which I can justify it, is to take it to track days, but seeming as we'll have the track car, I would want any excuse possible to drive that. It therefore pretty much renders my car a little bit pointless....
At the end of the day my daily commute is a 15-minute drive, half of which is through narrow twisty lanes, which I can't drive quick anyways (unless I wanted to die), so I do not think I will miss my car too much, as long as the replacement is everything I want it to be, with a decent sound system.
I'll stick up a G.I./W.I.W. thread when I get time later on the week, to see how much you reckon the car is worth in its current state and take that from there.
I just feel torn between my heart and brain.
My brain tells me it takes logical sense to sell it on.
My heart tells me I've been on a massive adventure with this car and it seems a shame not to see it all the way through.
