Selling the first car...

[MGZRod]

I'm browsing the Market a bit at the moment as will be getting rid of the ZR rather soon.

And I hate it.

This MG, whilst it has cost so so so much in stupid repairs, it's given so much smiles, it's made me understand properly what driving is about. I want to get rid of it so much, but I want to keep it until it dies (which in all honesty, being a rover, could be any day lol!)

Replacement cars? Only ones I'd want are similar cars like the mk5 fiesta ZS. Not hot hatches. But not base spec cars, if I got a 1.25 fiesta lux/si/loveydovey spec one. It would depress me, would be akin to going from the ZR to a R25.

Don't really know the point of this post to be honest. Someone reassure me these are normal feelings?!

And o/t slightly, is the MR2 GT the 2 litre? Looking at this and it's quite nice and it's actually in Aberdeenshire, not bloody Portsmouth or somewhere miles away!

Edit: linked to photo of my car rather than MR2, Its a sign ):

You'll kill yourself in a MR2 Rod!

Better than killing myself waiting in the reception of a garage, whilst clenching onto an invoice

MR2- lovely.

Do it, and be sure to take photos of the old bus to show the grandchildren in later years

Think I take a photo every time I'm out in the bugger. It's like an old dog. Low milage, just a bit tired all over.

Need a new wiper stalk though, whoops.

I can't sell my first car. I don't want to. It sits on the drive looking a little sorry for itself, but I have big plans. On the other hand I have a car that's constantly pissed me off with niggles that I really have lost any bond with it.

The MR2 looks pretty decent for the cash, although I've never heard of Stunner tyres and I somehow doubt they're made by Ronseal.
