Default Never Ever Do This

Hi all,
done the most stupidest thing of my entire life,traded my scoobie in for smaller car due to running costs,ended up with a 1.3 astra and what a load of sh*t,i am pineing for my car back,it was one of those panic moments where you worry about the costs etc,you can see my motor at a site call ianshammon.co.uk,i am gutted guys what should i do,i would feel a right idiot asking for it back,the astra was £6500,he gave me £4000 for scooby the prices it up at £5500 the f**king Wa**er,what should i do???

ahh mate i once had a nightmare where i done that! i still remember the feeling when i woke up thinking its was real. as above, remember the good times and at least you save the money like you hoped, or buy her back (hopefully for only 500or so more) and the money you loose will just be one of thoese things-- life is like that sometimes. Im think i know which one will make you happier when your lying in bed at night! OR... have a change and look at a difference performance car?

whatever route you take, hope you cheer up soon mate

i have done this twice now ,traded in a car and wish i'd of kept it
i also thought about what you mentioned about going back in and trying to get my scooby back but never did and someone grabbed it so i left it at that then i had a look on the website 6 month later and he had it back only to be sold less than a week he had it back .
doesnt help when you see other scoobies on the road and want to wave at them

can't live in regret, if you can't get it back (bear in mind it will cost you, but you'll learn from it!!), get over it and get saving for a new one...........

He'll do well to sell it at that, as its the top end of that car and age.

Don't look back mate, if you miss it that much go find another. Believe me when i first got my 03 WRX i was convinced i would never sell but 10 mins into driving my current subaru i knew i'd made the right choice and wished i'd never messed about with the WRX as my first There are so many out there (and no disrespect to your car or you) but better ones. You made the decision to sell for very good reasons, give it a month and see how you feel and if you miss the car too much get another one.
