Its not unusual to have thoughts about changing your car especially if fiddly little annoying things happen on a regular occurrence. That can from time to time detract from your full enjoyment of the car. You walk away having left the keys with the garage to fix it, with the calamitous thoughts of the worse it could be and how deep will I have to dig this time to get it right. Add to that the sense of the 'chase' and excitement of specifying a new car and no wonder we have anxiety, pangs of remorse, uncertainty, interspersed with potential childhood joy of being handed the keys to the sweet shop.
I try not to make decisions when I'm vexed with a car and the grass is looking so much greener over there, I usually count to ten and then ten again till the mist disappears, calm is restored, there is a sense equilibrium, mind you often easier said than done.
I'm waiting to get my Morgan into Lifes to get the rad changed since early August, such is the back log of works it now looks like it will be January before Mat will have an empty workshop, much of the delay has created by backlogs in spares for Morgans he is working on. I've become a little more philosophical about it, but beautiful sunny days like today, grate with me. I just hope that once its fixed, as I've waited so long that I haven't built up a false expectation that everything major is now fixed and it should be problem free motoring going forward . Something that in my experience of Morgans to-date and their reliability reputation will always bite you on the bum........that may lead to the thank you and goodbye time. The only time I've ever had to be a member of the AA or RAC recovery service has been whilst I've owned a Morgan......
