Thread: Would you hand over the keys to your car, new or not??

I'd let her have small well supervised goes. If she doesn't appreciate how great the D3 is then, when the next model upgrade comes along she won't be as enthusiastic to update or move a better model if it comes along.

Give in in the end if she leaves you and takes the kids, house and cars you will still be paying for it.

No I'm not a divorced or separated father.

I bet Stevo's Lady is thinking he might be soon...

I'm with Greylandy. Even though my used fender is a new purchase I am happy for the girl to talk it on a stroll, if she lovs it as much as you think of the benifits. Less hassle when it comes to spending all those dollars on it I reckon.

And hey face facts you like me obviousley care what others think (remark about dented XR6), so what could be better than having ya girl stoked about the Disco.

There is a special forum for relationship counselling in the sealed section of aulro.com. Do a search and post this thread there and I'm sure that you will get the benefit of people's wisdom. BTW it excludes spouses automatically I don't know how it does this though.


:wink:

My Fender is actually my wifes anyway. All our vehicles are technically owned by her. You will have to give a bit I think or you may be heading for divorce court, and she will take the house, kids and D3 anyway.

Not the duke too!

Steveo68,

We obviously live on different planets 8O

Mate, relax, it's only a car, it's hopefully insured and surely she can drive, and the relo's will be wearing clothes

Encourage her, a willing partner will make those trips away easier and they'll happen much more often.

When we upgraded to the D2, my wife wouldn't drive it for a month :?: :!: I told her it was insured and if she didn't - I'd get rid of it and we'd get an old Series 3 LWB. She loves it, (and hasn't damaged it - unlike me :roll: )

She loves getting out bush, doesn't mind where we go - or if I just go.

Yeah I'm a lucky man - but mate, read some other posts on here from guys that get castrated for even lookin at ARB catalogues.

Enjoy the car, don't make your missus hate it, and make life easy on yourself.

Much as I love my Rangie....if there was even a hint ..of having to choose between it and my life partner of 30 years...it would be out the door in a seccond.
She doesn't like driving it anyway and she has refused to even try the Skyline (200rwKw and a twin plate clutch that is either in or out)
But if she wanted to I would be happy with it.
