Anyone who bothered to read recently ADRIEN's - DOES ANYONE KNOW THIS PERSON, thread, may have read that i pranged my car recently.
well i thought i'd take the opportunity, to find out what everyones first car's were. the only reason i'm interested is, because, I seriously can't get my first car (The one i banged up last week - a 1984 NISSAN BLUEBIRD TRX SERIES 3.) out of my head, i'd only had it about 3 years, but f**k me, i loved it, i mean who doesn't want a real XB GT HARDTOP.? but you know we gotta start somewhere and thats where i started, it started out my partners, then she braught a MAGNA, so i said i'd take the NISSAN. I tell you what, it was fast, it was the sports model, so it wanted to get to 4th gear in a hurry, I couldn't drag anyone off at the lights, The pick up just wasn't good enough, but on the straights, i had everyone. I once dragged off a VX COMMODORE with a 308. under the bonnet, on the way to the airport. Little P plater wog, was not pleased at all, especially with his 4 mates in the car.
It had a place to put your mobile, and your change, just under the dash, also to the right of you, in a little compartment in the armwrest, you could palce a drink or a small bag of chips (sounds dumb but to me its important to be comfortable in your car, i don't just use my cars to Drive in, I gotta sleep in them from time to time, if i've had a little too much to drink out at that bush barbie, up at ya mates)
I'm tellin' you i loved it, I felt safe in it.
So i hit a bank, and i didn't write it off, but the damages were mopre expensive to fix than what i paid for the thing. So also being unroadworthy with a real f**ked up steering collum, and no front left indicator, i needed to get another fast
( i gotta get around, the missus works so she takes her car, and i gotta pick the kids up from school) so i found in the paper a DATSUN 120 Y COUPE for $300 unregistered. so the dude i sold i baught it off, heard my sob story , and asked what i wanted for the NISSAN, I'd rang around that morning, and the wreckers were only gonna give me $50 to $100 dollars for it, this guy was gonna give me $200. so i said "f**k it alright, come pick it up tommorow, i gotta get some sh*t out of it"
tommorow comes he picks it up, out of curiosity i ask, 'whatchoo gonna do with her', he said 'fix 'er up and giver 'er to me boy as a first car'.
My heart sunk, my first car, i took care of, vacumed out once a fortnite, threw garbage out the window, not on the floor, was going to some little f**king college kid, who was gonna cart his mates around in it, burn holes in the seats, spill bong water on the floor, get mud on the peddles, and probably conceive his first kid in.
That night i couldn't sleep, i almost cried, seriously, i am really depressed about my fist car, its gone, I've been trying to get in touch with the guy tro buy it back, but he ain't around.
Am i an overreacting idiot, or has anyone else out there, been so obsessed with their first car, that they were gonna be buried in it?
Hopefully will be switching soon to my 85 Stang Coupe 4 banger.
