You are lucky in so many ways, was it the white one you posted about in your other thread ? Too bad that one looked nice , Live & learn.

and as with any set back the best cure is to get back on the horse and find that car that is perfect for you!

Glad you made it out of that ok

There was a moment when I really thought I was going to hit him...but if I would have hit him once...I probably would not have stopped...but then I would have been in jail
