Is it normal to feel sadness after selling a car? It's like I've split up from a bird.

This is when you find out how much you really liked it.

Yes, it is normal (for us lot anyway).

I don't really miss mine too much but have missed some cars when sold. If you replace wisely then you won't miss, just like going on the rebound biggrin

Just think at least you have had the experience.

What is going to replace it?

I felt like that when I sold my E90 M3, replaced it with an E46 M3 to cut outgoings

Still get that horrible feeling of jealousy when I see an E90 M3

I was gutted selling my e92 M3, still think they are one of the most complete packages. What are you replacing it with?

It depends on what you're replacing it with...

This is the worry, nothing. Doing the house up.
