If you want nice things you work hard. I work 60 hours a week at times to pay for the luxuries in life. And accord type r's are not expensive cars at all. prices for an early one like mine are down to 4kish the now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me wrong, It's great that there are people out there like you and me who work our arses off to buy the things we want and enjoy, But not everyone is as lucky as us to have the opportunity to work like dogs 60 hours a week...

Adam K Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 i was a uni student and worked my arse off 7 days a week to be able to afford to run an ibiza cupra and lupo gti.any student who says they can't do it is lying, they would just rather spend their time drinking or sleeping.

Someone I've met and found to be a real cool guy, The next minute, My head is on the chopping block for insulting studetns...What I'm saying is the students who are "lucky if they can afford a car at all" are lazy IMO. Not unlucky. I also pointed out that I dont work 60 odd hours a week yet I manage absolutely fine, and you replied with a sarcastic comment. Defending Treblet for what? The fact a few people said they didnt like his car? Lets all form teams and battle over it! Honest to bloody god, everyone is entitled to their own opinions, whether people like them or not, people need to grow thicker skins!ThanksLauryn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was congratulating you on doing something which so many people out there can't do... Simply the fact that your spoiling for a "Keyboard fight" made you see it as sarcastic... I think Treblet is a cool guy, with a smart wee car... So if a bunch of people go round slagging his car off, I'm gona stand in defense. Is that OK with you???

Stand in defence if you wish, I really dont see the need, but yes, you carry on, you don't need my permission.Lauryn Edited May 24, 2009 by Lauryn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dxg Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 (edited) I wasn't actually criticising the black lupo. I was just asking if this:was meant to be this:Aside: I almost bought an Accord Type R a few years back, but the dealer was wanting £14k for it. I went with the Smart Roadster instead. Bad move. I thought the Type R was great but the interior was a bit dated. It, just like the GTI, is destined for classic status just because there are so few of them left in original condition IMHO.

Therefore one of the primary purposes of it would be to discuss Lupos, no?So by expressing an opinion that you dislike a particular vehicle is slagging it off? Shut up!Seems like Mark, Lauryn and I rattled the cage of a ClubLupo clique by stating facts about a member's vehicle.And Casper - who called us penises, lets hope you have more bottle than Treblet who certainly didn't want to reiterate anything he said on here to my face yesterday.If you do...see you at Edition Edited May 24, 2009 by Gez MC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I go to shows to relax with my friends and have a good time. If I wanted fights and stress I would go to work.People should remember that the internet is not real life and should take what is said with a pinch of salt.

CasperGTI Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 Dude, i understand and i dont really know whats going with you and jamie, but im out on this one.Dont know if jamie said something about your car a while ago mabe? got you a bit miffed? well if thats the case, well there was no need for that. And vise versa... a comment has been made about his car too, no one likes negativity, i for one dont. Your probably the same? dont know why it has to get on to a forum though?I dont go to shows to get in to fights.. I go to show my car and enjoy the scene, which people on here who know me can back me up on.John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
