hot wheelsmy daddy has a new toy:)
it isnt technically new cos its second-hand
but doesnt matter lah
it just better be worth the ruckus it caused
after abt 3 and a half years my family is back to an MPV
which for all practical purposes is so that all 6 of us can travel comfortably
for the initial ride i forgot that a MPV is higher compared to normal cars
and nearly tumbled out when alighting
the 3 of us at the back usually sit hip-to-hip in our sedan
in the new one..its like "whoa there is so much space"
and has a "basement boot" as we have affectionately termed it
the old car sadly has been parked outside the house the past couple of days
the sorry fate of having lost its position of being the "first love"
and according to my dad..it would be taken away on monday by the agent
cant help but feel a little sad
a tribute to the car that has served our family very well. with approx 119 000 km of mileage under its belt, its by far the most well-used car [ratio of length of use and distance travelled] that my dad has had. i'll miss the lovely colour which i help choose - by vehemently refusing the initial one my dad picked. i still remember the initial few rides when i would turn to the back and be mildly surprised that the car has ended already [no 3rd row of seats]. and of course..the huge boot which can comfortably accomodate all our bags when we travel up north. i hope it would serve its next owner [if it gets one] as well as it did us.
