Default Is It Wrong to Cry?

Ive owned a 1995 WRX Wagon for 7 years. Alas it is time for her to go. On friday i will be trading her in for a GOLF 1.9 tdi...Needs must...If i had the space id keep her, i would! I can buy the golf outright. For anyone wondering. Yes I fell In love with this car. I was just thinking of how she (never really named her) was over the past seven years. We had a lot of ups and very few downs! The Downs were easy to fix! As an Engineer I came to believe that machines have personalities..and she had the best. Writing this I feel honoured to have owned such a fantastic bit of machinery and a little bit weepy to know that the car i love will go into auction and be bought by either a engineering heathen or a breaker for spares.

I felt gutted when I saw my old classic drive off but happy in the thought of putting the cash in my hand to my new STi

As said above, you'll be back soon Easily the most reliable marque I've had

...and what's wrong with wagons?
I was told the other day (on here) that there is a lot of respect for them.
Maybe it's a 50/50 split then?

You wait until you get next month's bank statement. Then they'll be tears of joy.

A Subaru Wagon is the ultimate driving machine IMO - fast, reliable, handles perfectly, carries the mother-in-law and the camping stuff, holds the dog and parks without being noticed.

It is, without doubt, the most intelligent choice of transport known to man
