Can You Love It Too Much?

I mentioned 'Dizzy' in my previous post...

I have atm... Yaz... Yaz is a 1.3l CDX (see avatar info :P) i have had her for 5+ years and we have had some great times... and most prolly will have more great times in the near future...

However.... my next step will not be a TSport... no... I dont have that bug... As lovely as the little Yaris is... my next shall not be one...

I am after a MR2 Roadster.... the mk3 MR2 has called to me... and her name is Dizzy... and she will be mine... (as soon as I have the means for funds.. *sigh.. and with work the way it is... aint likely its gonna be soon unless I inherit a load of ££ or I win the lottery)

Once I have the Dizz... then let the modding commence! :P

I Love my Yaris to bits! I'm afraid to park it on the road if someone nicks my space at work so i've started putting a cone in it to make sure its free when i come in!!

The only downside to that is i have students milling round my car all day... But at least my wing mirrors remain intact!!!!! :lol:

Yes I love them too much too - I co-own a Yaris Blue and a TS and have an unhealthy love for them :wub:

Everytime I look at my Yarii I smile - as daft as that is! I can't fault them, they're very nippy, cheap to run, cheap on insurance and are a decent size too.

The Blue sits on top of a public multi storey car park on the roof every day when I am at work, and I can see her from the window - everytime I can I have a look out the window to check she's still there :lol:

Was cleaning the Blue yesterday, and two of my Neighbours were saying "you have a well nice car etc etc etc"...altho maybe that was because they wanted me to clean their cars too - not quite sure which one is true lol.

If either of our Yarii got "hurt" I'd be well upset too.

I was madly in love with my 1litre. A great colour which shone up well and a clean little car. Photographed her from every angle and spent far too much money getting her valetted! The shine went off when a motorbike drove into the back of me. Sure, the bodyshop did a reasonable enough job but a few things weren't quite right and the relationship cooled. :crybaby:

Now I've got a new 1.3 and I can again worry about where I park her, what that new rattle is, etc. Going back to Mr T soon to have a few little things sorted (couple of marks on dashboard, a creak in passenger door and so on).

Keep rubbing little bits of dirt off the bonnet thinking it's my first stone chip!

Yes, you can love it too much! :yes:

Yeah, I'm part of the "too much" club :lol:

I press the "lock" button about 5 times every time just to make sure its locked ...

I park at the far corners of supermarket car parks "just to make sure"...

I keep a book so that I can work out the fuel consumption...

I am fiercely defensive if someone even attempts to "diss" the Yaris...

Tonight I was on my way home and having witnessed two pieces of driving that could have resulted in serious accidents I thought "what would I get to replace this if it gets written-off too?" I couldn't think of a similar car that would replace it.

Yeah, waaaay too much :lol:

Yes have to agree i look out for her,watch where i park and who next to ;)

but to be honest i've been the same with all of the cars i've owned.

my main concern with my yari is how awfully thin the paint is :blink: i've NEVER

had any of my other cars chip as badly as this,so no matter how much i look after her i cant stop her chipping :(

my yari is a good little car but there are alot of nice cars out there,

when its time to swap her i doubt if it will be for another yari...unless they bring the 1.8 turbo out :D

the Nissan s15 silva is very temping :drool:

I love my Yaris!! I really hate going to bed at nite because i know its sitting out in the street all alone (all together now Ahhhhh).

Its an obsession to me. Ive never had a car that ive said that i love but this is a car that i cant stay away from. It even take all my attention away from females.

Ive never spent as much money on anything in my life!! Also ive never had a car longer than 9 months because i usually get bored with them, but not this little beauty!!!

Yaris-You can love it toooooo much & i do :D

I have owned many cars over the years , but can honestly say that I have never got so "attached" to any of them as much as I have the Yaris.

I have always been enthusiastic about the cars I own, but the Yaris really stands out as "The Very Best"

I also find the atmosphere on TOC to be the friendliest owners club that I have ever belonged to :group-cuddles:

Yes I really "love It Too Much" :thumbsup:

I wonder if we are all attached to our Yarii because of the great community here as well?

I think it helps!

I mean I was a member of the Daewoo Matiz Owners Club before, but it wasnt a very big forum, so the community aspect was never there but with here we are all in the same mindset and theres loads of us! :lol:

TOC - its a disease, but a good one! :lol::lol:
