Save a car
If you’re a car passionate, or someone who values the sentimental value of certain objects please read the following article:
You may be wondering why it’s worth saving up for an old car right? This car has it’s history, it’s tweaks and it’s fun stories. It has been through a lot and it still shows signs that it can do another hundred thousand miles.
The story starts when my dad first got the car back in 1999. I can still remember the plastic covering the seats, the paint protection coating and the first trip to the Shell gas station with that car. I was only 11 back then and for me, it was like a space shuttle, it had electric windows, it had ac and it had one cool Kenwood tape player with 4 speakers + 2 tweeters.
The car has been through a lot since then, dad has been driving it from 1999 to 2006, taking our family on mountain and seaside trips, we went to Greece, Italy, Hungary and Austria with that car. After 2006 I’ve earned the right to drive it, obtaining my driver’s license. I’ve been taking trips all around the country, I’ve been using that car every single day, both winter and summer, very little mechanical faults in this passage of times. That car is the witness to my young teen adventures, my joys and my sorrows, my high-school graduation, my first freshmen year at RAU University. It helped me move from a city to another, it helped my friends move from their home to a newer home.
Even in some bad times, when a cab turned around the double continuous line and I crashed into him, or when I got rammed in the back about 2 years ago cause a driver failed to see the light changing and kept on going… Each time, I worked overtime to pay for repairs. Buying them piece by piece and replacing them with new original parts.
However, this year, in July I got the “Periodical Technical Inspection” or MOT. I can no longer afford to do all the fix-ups (I’ve got a bank loan for my house) and I’m having a hard time paying for stuff as it is. I am sure it will not pass in it’s current technical condition so that’s why I am asking for help.
