Do you even like your car?

I used to like it, but now i hate it. (St220). I seem to hate it more since it was crashed into for some reason. Keyfob fails to work now and again, breather hose split (common), two alloys have been bent (one on a bump no bigger than a pile of dust), auto wipers dont work properly, paint peeling on one of the arches, clutch feels like it might be on its way out (700-1000 quid job apparently), rear heated screen doesn't work, leather recaros are terribly uncomfortable, power steering is noisy and sometimes stalls the car on full lock (lol), armrest bracket is broken so it doesn't clip in and hold in place, gearknob is peeling, and i heard an odd noise from one of the aux belts the other day, so that could be on it's way out too. I also had to replace the handbrake cables after they seized, cooking the back pads which were only 2 months old in the process.

I appreciate some of this stuff is routine (and probably minor compared to some PHers cars), but it all clubs together to make me hate the thing. It's not even a nice place to be in anymore. If/when the clutch goes, i'd take great pleasure in scrapping it and breaking it for spares on ebay.

Anyone else driving a car they hate?

Edited: More faults that i'd forgotten about

Hmmm, I have a 97 2.0 Auto Toyota Picnic and a 2006 1.8 TDCI Galaxy.

I hate them both with a passion. Both are excellent cars, perfectly fit for purpose, but God I hate them!!

XD i once drove an auto Picnic. It was great fun.

Please go on... its nippy enough for sure, but its a wallowy old bus. I'd struggle to call it fun.

It was so st it was fun. Granted it wasnt my car, and i lol'd at the 'overdrive' button on the stick shift which did nothing at all. Ahh memories...
