...And a big yellow taxi took my car away

My cute old Ford Escort has quit the service. More than 4 years it got me a small piece of agility (If i was able to get my ass of the sofa. A few of you guys know what i am talking about). So i have a "new" car for 3 weeks now. It´s a Volkswagen. The good ol´Golf (but station wagon).
No longer the dangerous feeling on the highway with tempo 150 km/h *g*. No wind blowing inside the car (the seal of the old car wasn´t that leak-proof). Ragtop-feeling without getting wet if it rains - that´s cool. That´s all over now. The change to reach my target raised to vastness. But was it worth that? For shure it was not worth to but another few hundret euro in the ford to get it fixed. Well times are over when i sat in the old rusty tank, singing to music of bob marley, banging my head, dreadlocks flying around, the cops stopping me searching me or/and my car for drugs. Good old times *g*. Dreadlocks were cut of, car broke down. At least i still enjoy to listen to Bob Marley and Tower of Power (phew! No chart song will come through my auditory canal! That´s for shure. At least not if i can influence it).
For all that i am very happy about that change. I don´t have to pray to the lord to start up my car. Maybe i will post a pic next days. Lets see. So long. Take care everybody.

it was about time for your old ford to go wasn't it? I had one of those - a little bit older though, as my first car. Jesus you know what you'll miss the most? The storage in front of the passenger seat - capable to hold four standing beer bottles at once :D. Anyways, great that you have a new ride buddy!

I miss you guys so much. I have been missing old times very badly lately. I have been so busy with school (and exams which are going on right now) that I never have time for the kinds of things that we used to do. I might make it back to Mauritius (if I can get the government of Mauritius to hire me to help them with a project) at the end of August. It will never been the same without all of you...
