RE: Proud owner of my first car, aged 42 🚗

I would have never guessed you are older than me.

It's the average English and boyish bad jokes.

I suspect your youngest is a far better driver than me, and I think mine will be too in 3/4 years. It's just not that enjoyable at present - you'll never hear me say 'let's go for a drive'. I need a purpose, and a phone telling me where to go.

Happy enough with the blue, black is nice although not ideal when it's 40c.

Drinking and driving is strictly reserved for my two-wheeled transport :)

The first car I bought actually came with the purchase of four new tires. It was cool because I didn't even have to put the tires on. They were already attached. It was kind of black but mostly dust color and rusty. My second car was a blue, just like yours. It had little headlight washer nozzles that sprayed fluid everywhere after I broke them. So I'd always insist people at bush parties could sit on my hood. Then I'd push the button and make their asses and crotch all wet. My third car was black. Once you go black, you never go back. That's my go-to color now. My motorcyles have always been red, except for the first one, which was yellow.

You must have been pretty satisfied about receiving 4 tires with your purchase.

Did you get a high-vis jacket, a foldout warning triangle, and 4 litres of washer fluid? The latter could wet a lot of croches I reckon.

Black would be my choice but they aren't common here. Maybe the sun melted them all.

No. I received a car after purchasing 4 new tires. The car was free. The tires on it were what I paid for. It was the biggest piece of shit ever. I took a pressure washer to it one day and the whole side of the car fell apart. Then I got some money back when I sold the tires.

A white car in Canada is dangerous to own. Nobody can see you. You can't miss a white car in a blizzard. You'll hit it.
