sold my escort because it was cut and shut,
sold my series 1 eb because it was a P.O.S.
gemini got sold because my eb was fixed and didnt need it anymore
series 2 eb got sold bacuase i was a moron and wanted money to do up my au
au was going to sell it for a deposit on a house, but kept it. in the future it might be sold for a ba xr6 turbo because 5 grand spend on them makes them a whole lot quicker than the 5 grand ive spent on my car.

Thinking about selling my Honda Integra:

Reasons for Selling / Keeping:

1. Sell - Not that quick in a straight line
Keep - Nothing new from Honda Australia and 99% of the turbo FWD brigade (Megane Cup excepted) can beat it’s laptimes.

2. Sell - Starting to get a bit old. The mortgage isn’t too daunting and I can afford to take on some debt.
Keep - Doesn’t owe me any money and it’s still worth something, Reasonably economical as a daily driver.

3. Sell - Lots of other cars are tempting.
Keep – Know it’s history and how it has been maintained.

4. Sell - Tyres are giving me the irrits – try find a great performance tyre to suit a 15” wheel.
Keep – I still enjoy the handling.

5. Sell - I’m starting to get to creep up on the limits of that cars braking abilities and significant upgrades will cost $$$
Keep - I can still go just that bit quicker on a circuit than I have been, still have to do 1:58’s at Phillip Island.

6. Sell - Can’t tow (anything)

A tow car is slowly coming up on the horizon. I would hate to go backwards in handling so maybe I’ll just keep it as a bit of fun for when I’m sick of wrestling a big, boofy automatic (?) tow car around corners.
