This week the mini is on eBay hopefully getting me a figure slightly more than the scrap price, what a mistake this was even though in so many ways it’s a lovely car, the darned thing don’t work! I drove it back from Luton earlier, got as far as Newport Pagnell before I admitted defeat and called out the rescue truck!

Next to go will be the one I will sorry to see go, the Chrysler Grand Voyager which is so ‘me’ but, it’s no good for work, too expensive to run (25 mpg).

It’s been a good workhorse and has had some nice upgrades but, needs must.

I really would have loved to have done one family trip to Disneyland in her though … maybe I’ll get another one some day!
