Wife said 'NO' to selling the Supra!!

I was going to sell the car to make some room in the garage for my up and coming motorbike collection and the wifey said no!! She has got it in to her head that I am now the guardian of this Top Secret Supra and that it's my responsibility to look after it for future generations to come.

It seems that my wife is more passionate about cars than me. I'm going to have to build an extension for the bikes though.

Question: What are your partners views of your car - do they love them , hate them or simply tolerate them because they are part of you?

my partner hates my car haha

but...... she wont let me sell it to help save some pennies

My wife isn't overly keen with night upon night spent on the car, nor the stupid amount of cash, but she's very supportive and does like a blast in it!

My wife is very supportive of me having the Supra, she is pretty into cars, for a girl that is..

Today she helped me fit my sandwich plate, oil pressure and temp gauge...

My Gf loves the Supra, she hasnt moaned once about the money ive spent on it. Long as she looks good in it, she doesnt care lol. The handbags i buy her helps though.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder so I dare say your marriage will last forever (or as long as you keep the Supe).

My gf loves my supra and helps me work on it. My last gf hated it so i soon got rid of her!!

Very true - she is a diamond though, with or without the Supra!

All 3 to be honest. Most of the time she absolutely hates the car given the amount of money and time I spend on it yet spend little time actually in it. She sees it as a waste, and she is mostly correct to be honest. However, she does enjoy going out for a run in it and she does describe it as stunning so there is that flip side.

Also when I was almost made redundant I spoke about selling up but she was having none of it. She said that after all the time and money spent on that car that it would be the last thing to go and it would only be if we really needed to get rid.

Women are strange creatures aren't they

my missis hates my car .due to the fact its sucks so much money.

Only got my car last week so the gf hasn't seen much of it, but she likes it because 'its shiney' lol

My wife loves my car but won't drive it, just for the fact if she crashed it I would divorce here.

Is it a short or long term relationship you have been in mate. If it's the first of the types then you will need to start looking for a new chick soon. It normally takes a woman 37.4 'full relationship days' before she realises what she has got herself involved in.

my gf loves the supra but does have the odd moan about the time i spend on it, and going to meets. but me and the car are a package deal

It sounds as if you've got a good lady there.

Mine wont let me sell mine either, she loves it too much

The translation to that Rich is: She doesn't want you to sell your car for a 10k price tag when you've just spent 30k over the past few years. There's a common theme developing here; me thinks?

My mrs hates my supra more than anything on earth, mainly due to me' spending my savings on the single build and not on a deposit for a house

My girlfriend likes it. As above, she doesn't like the weekends she wastes watching tv 'cause I got stuff I need want to do to it. The speed scared her at first but she doesn't mind it so much now. Going over 120 leptons is "too much" though.

She also said she'll never let me sell it.

I quite like how tkddav3 summed things up with the 'package deal' bit, I'll maybe have to use that after the 37.4 days of minimal questioning expire! But it's been nearly a year we've been together now and she was quite supportive of my last car.

If I keep the petrol and general maintenance bills to myself, will all be okay?

Mines good, although 0.8bar, "woo, this is fun", 1.2bar "do tha again and I'll flaten you"

She bloody would too!

My girlfriend likes it.

Does she now. This is a clean thread mate:innocent:

My mrs hates my car, she doesn't want to go in it, she worries when i'm out in it but she wouldn't want me to sell it!

I know this for a fact because we are looking at buying another property and my car also needs a new clutch!!

The 2k clutch money would pay for some work on the new house, but a car with no clutch isn't much use 'as she pointed out to me'.

The main reason we have been looking for a new property is space, at the moment we spend hours each week suffling vehicles around.

At the new place i've got loads of room even for the motorhome and trailer to be parked together ready for race weekends, along with a nice double garage for the supra to sleep in

Lol probably 50% loves it 50% the above reason

Does she now. This is a clean thread mate:innocent:
