I dont know if hobby but i ****ing love messing around with cars mechanical bits. Its a joke i find myself just begging for somthing else to break on my piece of **** so i can fix it. Was looking at getting something newish but now i dont want to because it wont break as much. That said i have had this car for like 6 years and it is time for a WRX so may just keep the ****ter for weekend tinkering.
Funny thing is i could not give a **** about cars a couple years ago now i have a crap ton of tools and my garage is turning into a junkyard of old tyres, rotors, panels and ****.
I am even starting to think about leaving my current job which pays probebly double that of a mechanic fully qualified to do an apprentiship.
I dont even like driving that much. Its weird.
