My Car

Your Buick looks like a really neat car, I can understand why you hate to see it go. I've always thought of our cars are family members--well, I do, anyway--and I give them names (my kids think I'm nuts for doing this). You know what, though, my cars have never let me down. Even when I forget to top up the gas and too late (!) notice the gas gauge pointing to the red zone, I will coax and cajole my car and when it stops, it is right in front of the gas station and will just have to be pushed a short way. Never fails! My first car was a grey VW 1200 (Irving), then a bright yellow VW 1500 Brasilia we called Yellowbelle. Our car in Nigeria was a white Peugeot that my son christened Pogo. In Canada, we had a red 2 door Mazda 626 my son called Reddy (I loved that car!), and then a teal blue Honda Civic we named Wispy (because of the licence plate). Silver Wispy (Acura 1.6 el that my son drove--he took over payments when my lease period was over. This is the car that was hit head on by a drunk driver.) I had leased a Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer that I fell absolutely in love with, but the gas Conker (named because of its deep rich chestnut brown colour) guzzled was driving me to the poorhouse! Anyway, just wanted to let you know you are not alone in feeling bad about having to say bye to your four-wheeled friend, that has given you long and reliable years of service!

I have fallen in love with almost every car I've had and hated to part with each of them, but then it happens all over again and always the next one is better. What kind of scooter do you have?

Yes I have a couple of times and it is not nice My very first car which was my car had to be sold because my Ex Husband wanted a better car I cried as I loved that car but it went

may be its hard...once a car lives out a certain period of time...it gets expensive to maintain.... better get a new car...better maintenance deals...etc....these days better fuel efficiency too

Sweets, I hope you can sell it quickly and get it over with... I loved my Tercel 4wd station wagon...but during a bad wind storm a huge soft maple fell on it and I would have to be 2 feet tall to drive it now... xxxxxxxx

I'm on my third car and never got to sell my first two. I was very sad to see my first go though, it was my first car so of course i loved it. It was a '95 Hyundai elantra. Unfortunately that went because I was in a car accident and while the car was in the shop the shop owner decided to burn his shop down. So I lost my car completely. Then I got a 2000 cavalier and I never really liked the car. after 4 years a fedex truck decided to make a u-turn literally right in front of me and totalled my car. Niiice. so i'm on my 3rd car. A 2005 Mazda 3. Had it for 2 years now and I love my car dearly. It's the first one I picked out alone and loved everything about it. Of course I'll be sad when i have to see this one go, but I'm hoping this time to choose to sell it rather than see it destroyed. so be happy it wasn't just destroyed.

I used to have an 84 Buick Century. We do become attached to our cars. A friend (who used to buy and sell cars) once said "He wasn't married to them". He bought and sold some really nice cars. I hope you find a van that you will love even more than your car. Good luck. I hate vehicle shopping.

I had my 93 saturn for 13 years so it was hard to get rid of it this past June. I do miss it because I had it for so long but am enjoying my new car very much and the advantages of my new car. I am always wondering where my saturn is now. Someone I am sure has bought it and is driving it. The thing that I regret the most is that I should have sold it to a friend instead of trading it in. I could have gotten more money than I did.

Im sorry you have to sale your car. I do agree its a fine looking automobile! When you get your van I think you will love it too. I think thats really cool you have a scooter.

I have liked every car I have had, but treated it as a means of transportation. I have been in two wrecks that totaled two of my cars (not my fault). My current car I plan to trade in eventually to get something else.

Looks like a nice car to me. I hope you would get a good looking van to replace that Buick! All the best to you!

I once had a Buick..Century, I really liked that car too. It was my first car. I love my car and it would break my heart if I had to sell it. I have a 97 Monte Carlo and it still looks and runs really good. I'm sorry you are going to sell your car since you really like it, but I hope your like your new van just as much.:)

Nice car! I have had several cars I really hated to part with. Now that I don't drive any more, I don't have to worry about my heart getting broken!LOL! Luckily, when I WAS driving, my hubby, who works on cars and small airplanes, took care of the maintainance and all repairs. That was very handy!

Looking the photo of your car, i deem it is beautiful car. I like it. I think not only one's favorite car,but some else you loved,if you must lose it ,you'll be sad about it .

Your car looks very nice. It's a shame you have to sell it. I've had a few cars that I hated to part with. Right now I own a 1992 Olds 88 Royale. I love this car, but will have to part with it soon I think. I think theframe is going, but you wouldn't know it, as there is no rust on the car. I hope you find a van that you fall in love with!!

I hate cars! I hate insurance and repairs and everything related to a car. I live in a city where everything is convenient, where all you need is two legs and a free bus pass ( incentive for university students). You might want to think about a Mopad.
