The Car is the star!
Recently, we have had an issue with our main car. The issue was its inability to pass its own MOT. For cars, this is not good. It is, very bad. It can mark the death of the car. And boy, this car is virtually indestructible! However, there were quite a few major fails!
It essentially boils down to the fact that the car is now thirteen years old, which, in car years is thirteen years. this makes it an older car. The plus to this is that it drives a lot of miles each year that helps keep the engine tip top. The drawback is that the car drives a lot of miles each year which that means every thing is fatiguing. In this case it was the brake pipes throughout the car.
This is a big job, using garage parlance, and big correlates with expensive!
But, it has now passed its MOT as the work has been done. This means thought that the warning signs are there and it is time to get a car where each repair cost more than the car. Currently valued by WeBuyAnyCar at £215!!
So, with children in hand we head out to the local car supermarket! This also passes as entertainment of course. No 1 son has an obsession with cars so he is more than happy to get in and out of cars all day. No 1 daughter seems fairly happy too!
As you can see she soon zeroed in on the expensive cars. With her champagne tastes and beer money the idea of a 2 year old BMW appealed.
In her undoubted excitement, before she climbed in to show me, she had come across and said;
'Daddy, look at this car it has no height restriction!' - obviously super excited, but undoubtedly outwitted by the hidden convertible roof...
