Cheer me up!

I've picked up my CTR from the dealer (who had it to sort the dash noise) and noticed a couple of small scratches on the glossy plastic by the speedo, so that along with the endless list of troubles people are posting here, the fact the noise is STILL there, and everyone (family and friends) saying "ooh, looks nice but i bet its really pricy to run" and "mmmm, you've lost loads buying a brand new car" is really getting me down in the dumps!

when i'm feeling down in the dumps (never about my nhb gt) i just get in my car and go for a drive and it puts a big smile on my face. everyone comments what a great looking car it is and everyone seems to genuienly like it. i've got a few niggles which need sorting but at the end of the day i love my car. anything your not happy about which is from the dealer you need to make a list and take your problems up with them, try talking to a manager if your not happy. don't rest until they sort it for you cos its your money they happily took off you....

you may lose money on a new car, but aleast you know you have a brand new car, and not nearly new with stone chips and may be an accident repair, which will show in about 12months when the paint fades or peels.

make a list of all the negative comments, and for every one do a 5 second burst of vtec, then you will wonder what on earth you were worried about in the 1st place
