A lovely multi function steering wheel with beautiful breathing leather and brushed metal buttons.
Why ? As I didnt check and thought that all the 3 spoke airbags were the same ( trust me, from 20 mins ago, I now know they are not !)
Oh well, back onto ebay for sale lol

Thanks very much but I really don't need one. It started out for my GF's youngest and then I got drawn in.
He got one from elsewhere in the end.

lol, ours would have been a waste that way too as downloaded movies from isohunt are not exactly in Dolby Surround ;)
I resuced mine from this list by using it with my xbox and ps3 games ( when im allowed to turn it up that loud )

Jetwash - £4.00
Brush wasnt stiff enough to remove dirt, and i broke my rear windscreen washer jet because i was too heavy handed with that retarded brush on a stick.
Net loss £12.00~ - why? because i still have dirty patches, and its gonna cost me £8 to replace my washer jet :(

Dog Toys !
On that note, I will also add the JML dog toy without the stuffing. Codi, my 11 month old husky took 5 minutes to rip the 2 squeakers out of it and rip it in half. It now lies in the corner looking like a skin but as JML promised, no stuffing !!! An absolute waste of money. Ikea sell kids toys for 99p is the best value

A Honda Civic EX.
Had decided that an A3 was the car for me, but at the last minute looked at the Honda, got taken in by all the equipment on it and bought it.
Quickly found out that all the design flaws of the Civic make it virtually unfit for purpose.
Kept it for about 10 months and traded it in for an A3 - the car I was going to buy in the first place!
Cost me £3k that mistake!

To agree with earlier posts, anything by JML, what a load of tat!!
Another waste of money is Gucci watches, specifically the one I bought my Mother. It lasted about 5 minutes before breaking (I can't be sure it was 5 minutes as I was going off a dodgy watch). I can't understand though, why Gucci let Turkish market stalls sell their watches lol.
And my last one - Regaine. Guaranteed to make you £30 lighter a month with no visible effect whatsoever.
