Oh dear, what do i do?

[ridds]

I recently purchased a Cerbera. It's being delivered on Thursday.

Problem is, my Mother returns home on Wednesday for 4 days (surprise visit to me) and I haven't told her.

Any ideas on how to get out of this???? I already have 4 other cars here and this is not going to go down well. Especially as I'm supposed to be saving for a deposit on a house!

Take her for a spin it it, that should leave her speechless.

[grass widow]

Well if your not up for being honest. You could always say its someones xmas present and you offered to hide it.

[ridds]

Yeah, did that last year about 3 weeks before I smashed the last one up.

Now you see the real depth of the problem.

An easy one this.

I'll come down on thursday and take the car off your hands for four days and we'll tell your mum i had it delivered to you because i live on a boat or something.

Whats your adress?

Sell the other four cars and get your own place.

See, that was easy.

[ridds]

Ahh yeah other thing it has no Tax or MoT at teh moment so it can't go anywhere either!

[iansull]

Delay delivery?

[ridds]

No can do, guy goes away and needs to get the car to me on that day.

It's all looking rather pants at the moment. Still my Mums face is going to be priceless. was hoping it would happen when she came back for Christmas but I suppose it will be just as funny sooner.

so you live in the family home, but Mum is visiting for four days?

I know that this is a bit O/T, but have i got the wrong end of the stick here or did you get your parents to move out??

Near enough, house sitting for her.

[hedders]

So, out of interest, if you don't live there..why don't you tell her that what you do with your money is your own business and you would rather spend it on cars right now?

Go on, you know you want to

Sorry, I have to say you have a very odd collection of cars. A BMW, a TVr and a Nova? What the hell happened there? Have you never sold a car or something?

[scared but happy]

I used to get the same reaction from my Mum "why do you need such a big car"?
What size engine is it? ......

Understandable question.

The Nova is a track car, now up for sale due to the iminent arrival of the Cerb. BMW sold on ebay tonight and the guy is collecting it tomorrow (Cheap car that I've just made £150 on).

I also have a Rover Sterling that will be my new daily car.

Anyone want a car?

My mum seems to like my 'profile' car, especially when i sweep up and pick her up from somewhere in it, which isn't often. (seeing as it has been off the road for the last year...oh and she lives 500 miles away)But it is nice when your mum likes your car!

[ridds]

Yep, she liked my last one, said it was more of a buzz than her younger days on motorbikes. I just think she's probably going to go tits when she she's this one.
