You've got to keep it, or sell it to me :). If I had the space....

Being a 1990, it is one of the last one's which can be de-catted legally. Courtenay Autosport also used to do wonderous things to these 3.0  24v straight 6 engines. This thing could absolutley fly along to the point where I'd want to start spending money on brakes and suspension.

Just clean up the spots of rust, polish it and what a sleeper! :y :y :y

The question you have to ask yourself is.....if you sell the car will the nagging stop.

Of course the answer is easy as quite clearly it wont but, it might move onto another subject.

I would like to sudgest that it might be better to retain the car and then at least you have a good understanding of what the nagging will be related to.

The alternative is that the nagging moves onto an as yet unknown subject.

My inferences from this post are that

1) The Mrs will always Nag.
2) Its better to know what she is going to Nag about rather than be hit broadside by some thing new.

So the conclusion is.

Keep the car as it clearly has more benefits than just being a car, it also allows you to add little bit of predictability to an otherwise random creature  ::) ::)  ;D ;D

Yep. Keep the car. A sort of "sacrificial anode" that attracts all the nagging. I like it. Bit like my (still) untiled bathroom floor.

Oi, you!

That we're going to suffer is a certainty. It's our lot in life. It's just trying to find an agreeable way to do so that keeps us keen.
