A car can be a great pulling device, so keep the car and start using that back bench the way it was designed to be used!!!

A Rover would do the job just as well

EDIT: I would give up my car for my gf, but she would never actually do it as she knows how much I love it

Girlfriend.

I sold my BMW last year and used the funds to pay for a trip to Spain that I'd promised her.

I miss the car, don't get me wrong, but, after nearly losing her (the GF) to Breast Cancer last year, things are in perspective for me.

Cars are just not that important, shame it takes something so drastic to make you wake upto the fact.

I don't think any (many) of us would ever really seriously consider cars to be important

The way i see it is that i need transport, and they are something fun to spank a bit of cash on, so why not....

Well mate, I used to put a high priority on what I drive, these days, I could not care less, as I say, shame on me for thinking thus until something woke me up!
