As above, any comments welcome(y)

For me mechanical tinkering is my hobby, like to make sure my car is very well maintained and nothing is wrong with it, checking on everything when I get a chance.

Secondly I like to keep it clean and shiny, no good having a balck car if you can't see your face in it.

Be interesting to see what makes everyone tick....

None really, just to get to A to B.

Although, I do like it to look clean and tidy, but I wont spend hours and lots of money on cleaning it.
 
Keeping it well maintained is the top priority by a mile, my car does 436 miles in the normal week as a minimum and I like to keep ahead of the game with preventative or at least as quickly as possible maintaining anything that starts to become an issue (without going too overboard of course)

Car was grey when I started cleaning it last time, turned out to be white in the end :rolleyes:
 
well everything...
although money is the issue at my age and being a student doesnt help..

my first car was clean most of the time, had some styling mods, but it wasnt powerfull but i did few mods to help that..

my current car is dirty(outside) and i have done nothing to it at all..

next car hopefully will be with engine mods(not ussual K n N, exhaust) i really hope get much more from it and make it a sleeper of some sorts :)
 
yep, the first one.

I know that underneath its exterior, its 100% good mechanically :), but a person looking at it might think its not looked after, .. splits in the front bumper, and dents in the top of the drivers door where some scrote bent the top of the door back to get in it :mad:

I try to keep the car clean, with it being yellow it shows the muck up quite easy, but I dont go mad on the cleaning, to date I have only polished it once.

I like it to be clean inside too, but again is a swift job - just a hoover out, and some cleaner on the plastics.

Its maybe due a problem!! - its ran sweet now for a few months with no problems, cant foresee anything, so fingers crossed (y)
 
none of the above, the ergonomics are a winner for me! You spend so much time in there, you want it to be somewhere pleasant

the last option is closest to it
 
for me it would keeping thing is working order then keeping it clean... i washed it at least 3 times a day last summer....
 
I like to keep it all in perfect running order, as I like to give it a good thrash once in a while!

Then keeping it looking good, but this sort of goes out of the window in the winter, when I give up on cleaning it because off all the mud and road grime :eek: :p

Jon.

Thats all LIES!!!!!!!!!............MEP you defo have a fetish for lights...:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:
 
Wheres the driving option?? I love driving my car, i hate tinkering really, its more outta necessity and the desire to have better stuff on the car that keeps me out there.

Anyone who voted for keeping it clean... you wanna come clean and polish my car every week? I'd love to have a clean car but don't wash it often so usually they are dirty.
 
I've gone for mechanics. Being that I cannot afford to be running two cars, I have a fleet of radio controlled cars to quench my tinkering thirst. Nitro-powered R/Cs should be calls FIAHs (Fix It Again Hourly).
