The time has rightly come for me to part with herbigcry.gifbigcry.gifbigcry.gif

 

This thread would be dedicated to her and her precious moments with me..

 

Her eyes caught me, when I first saw her and I knew she was mine....

Her slender body was a perfect fit in that slate green dress she was wearing and it gleamed from the day I got her.

 

She also ALWAYS guided me well whenever I was lost, detailing me through the streets and even those awkward areas that we chanced upon

Took her when she was 9500km old....have had a good 91000km with her...and every km still brings that gleam in my eye. A true joy driving her and taking her to the limits

From the day I took over her, I never had to send her for any repairs whatsoever, and she was truly the car that lived up to its name in German engineering repute.smile.gif

 

Only time I have had to send her in was for her oil change and regular maintenance. She was definitely cheap to maintain...relativelywink.gif

 

On the whole, the last 3 years with this grand old lady was awesome. We have been through it all. Spirited drives on the NS Hitting 200km/h was a breeze with her and she never even winced oncethumbsup.gifthumbsup.gif.

 

It is sad that I would have to part with her...as all good things have to come to an endbigcry.gifbigcry.gif. If I were migrating, I would export her to that country and continue to drive her...but oh wellunsure.gif

 

She will be gone in 3 weeks time and possibly over to SA or NZ...may the next owner have many more wonderful moments with this old lady, that I also call 'Old hag'. She has definitely served wifey's and my needsthumbsup.gifthumbsup.gif
