Hello Oppo,
Time to bring everyone up to date here!

I had a red civic hatch, if everyone remembers well. That vehicle was traded for an 04 Subaru Impreza wagon (that I should have probably kept, but it wasn’t my cup of tea at all).
Then, I sold it for an unfathomably low price and bit the bullet and drove a 1993 Lexus GS300 for a bit (That I had traded a good-running but rusty and high mileage 2000 Acura 1.6 EL for).. that thing was a drift machine and the 2JZ had only 164 thousand kilometers on it. Ran awesome but had a cracked subframe... that car is now under payments by some kid in Orleans!
With that car I went to pick up a 1997 Volkswagen Jetta TDI (manual, black, rusty as hell and showed 10 thousand clicks on the Odometer... yeah, right!) which I drove until the brake lines burst (both!) and the floor below and behind my drivers seat collapsed into rusty bits of metal. I then gave it away for the minute sum of 100 dollars to some old Jalopy dude in the middle of Osgoode.
That money and some other bits I had scraped from a paycheck served me well, I went to Navan in the same day with ZipppyArt’s 1998 BMW 318i to pick up a 1993 Honda Civic Sedan (autotragic, just for those long commutes)... since I needed to drive the car to work the morning after. The vehicle ran fine with a slightly blown headgasket but then that blew and I was left without a daily (I still have my 87 Peugeot 505 V6!). I scrapped the damn clean shell for $200 and am saving it to buy a REALLY Jalopy car tomorrow...
What do I have now? A rear-ended and screwed up old Peugeot, and a parts car 97 Audi A4 2.8 V6.

It’s a truly Jalopy life, the one I live.

Lol. Perhaps if you bought higher quality automobiles you would go through a few fewer. What is the point of having a 1997 Audi for parts if you have nothing to give it’s parts to? lol.
