You will be missed Oliver. Tomorrow you will go to a new home where I hope will be treated as well as I did. I will keep this Coke in honor of everything you taught me. You were the best first car I ever imagined.

I'll bet it's sad to see it go. Looks good in that picture also. Hope to see a new car soon!

Oh there will be, we went to see some CPOs at the VW dealer. Only Jettas. I would like a 5 cil. Manual with sunroof.

Next week I am going to 10 dealerships to try out 15 different cars. Have no idea what I will end up with

That sounds a lot like my car search, except mine lasted months... I got something I loved in the end though.

Oh we never know where life will take us

I know it's just a ride on the wheel

And we never know when death will shake us

And we wonder how it will feel

So goodbye my friend

I know I'll never see you again

But the time together through all the years

Will take away these tears

It's okay now

Goodbye my friend

I've seen a lot things that make me crazy

And I guess I held on to you

We could've run away and left well maybe

But it wasn't time and we both knew

So goodbye my friend

I know I'll never see you again

But the love you gave me through all the years

Will take away these tears

I'm okay now

Goodbye my friend

Life's so fragile and love's so pure

We can't hold on but we try

We watch how quickly it disappears

And we never know why

But I'm okay now

Goodbye my friend

You can go now

Goodbye my friend

Indeed. I think with us gearheads we tend not to weigh up options as rationally as most, more often than not something just catches our eye for no real reason and we end up drawn to it. That's what happened to me at least.

I salute you sir! Thanks a lot!

Haha, I also like to choose the underdog, or the unobvious. I HATE having what everyone else does or having to have a product to be considered "Correct, or cool or in".

That's why I ended up buying a tiny box on wheels in bright blue with bright blue seats. Nothing better than rolling past a boy racer gangster leaning in his fart canned civic desperately trying to look cool, in a completely unfashionable car having a lot more fun than he is. It suits me and I don't care if no one else likes it.

Haha you're welcome

I google'd song lyrics to find something fitting

That is so true and such the right way to go. I don't give two bell ends of what people think I drive. It will be stick, it will be chosen because of tis superior dynamics, and it will be enjoyed all to myself!

Good man. It'll be interesting to see what you end up with, seems from your article from a couple days back that you have a list of pretty cool cars to choose from. Enjoy your car shopping.

I missed your post about this, sooo I'm going to throw in my 0.02 cents in now. Can you get a Abarth for 20k over there? My friend just got one and its a lovely little thing. I'm not a city car kind of guy, but damn … its nice.

This is rather depressing...

Bye Oliver!

I will enjoy it A LOT. I seriously have waken up at 6AM just of excitement.

Share a coke with Oliver...

Its amazing to think this name was chosen by Coke, since they choose names that mexicans ACTUALLY have. Then, I go to the Store and find this. I had to have it.

It is quite sad, but I will be a lot happier with the new buddy that fills the garage space. I have learned to move on and think about the future.

Still deciding. Tomorrow I will be going to try the Fit, the Micra, the Renault Duster, the Dart, and the Sonic. But for now, im inclined with a VW Polo 1.2 TSI or a Seat Ibiza

I will show him the functioning roof and the heated seats. That way, at least he will know it isnt a piece of crap
