I'm in the position where the F48 just doesn't "tickle my spuds" like the 430D did, in that it's pretty pedestrian to drive i just get a sense of indifference when i get behind the wheel.

I'm currently in a relaxed state of employment due to the Telecoms industry in the UK tanking so not really in a position where I can justify selling the F48 and pumping more money into a car.

Should have kept the 430D
Or look into less expensive cars you'd enjoy?

okay guys, after some detective work and the intel gathered, I can say with 100% certainty that this is Kevin Bacon.

Close! Off on the skin tone and hair colour though.

I like expensive cars and have a rather generous car allowance for the past 10 years

With three interviews next week I'm hoping to be back in a job soon.

My problem is I get bored of a car so quickly, inevitably I lose a ton of money.

To give some context, cars i've sold this year.
2005 - Subaru Impreza WRX Wagon (second car, actually made a profit)
2016 - VW Golf GTD - owned since new and driven as my daily
2016 - BMW 125D M Sport - (First BMW, loved it but needed a larger boot
2016 - BMW 430D M Sport XD - should never have sold it!
2016 - BMW X1 20D XD - current car, for how long I'm not sure.

I get bored of cars pretty quickly as well but I found a solution. Buy an M car. Not a M performance/sport car, a real M.

I declined having my home cleaned by very attractive lady. She offered to clean my entire home for $80....wearing next to nothing.

Although $80 for maid service to be done twice a month equating to $160/month is a steal, I have to say that if I found out the girlfriend was having her home cleaned by a stripper I would be less than pleased; so I declined.

In the event that the girlfriend and I breakup, let's just say that my amount of domesticated cleaning duties will be drastically reduced.

Might well be on the cards especially as it looks like my annual mileage is going to reduce significantly from 25k to 10k miles.

Might get an Audi.......

Auto will definitely win every time, but I'd rather enjoy myself than win

My one-word confession: Nicorette (or generic equivalent).

It's been 22 years since my 6-year-old son caught me sneaking a cig with a neighbor, started crying, and said, "Daddy, don't die!" It was a serious guilt trip, since then assuaged by the gum.

Tobacco in all its forms is the only drug I haven't been able to quit. I did indeed look like my George Carlin avatar at one time. According to my MD neighbor, nicotine gum has few harmful long-term effects. Of course, he was the guy who gave me the cig.

If she had the money to branch out, find attractive women like herself to do this in major cities and allow me to market her business, it would grow quickly.
