That fucking car... an update - BY POPULAR DEMAND (ie 1 request)

This should just become a blog about trying to sell my car and not my travels, as the topic seems to be dominating the page lately.

Anywho - the latest update in the saga that is my pariah of a car.... there is no update. Scary Wog was all talk and no action, much like all the men I encounter and I never heard from him again. He must be reading this - hey Akbar, how'd the driveby go in the cheaper corolla?

But I'm also informed by the Don that I should replace my hubcaps, renew my rego and give my car a good clean. Again. Why don't I just get my "spare" thousand dollars in coin and roll them one by one into the gutter?

Then again, if that little punk on the scooter with the shitty 2 stroke motor does not stop riding back and forth outside the window right now, it may make new hubcaps worth it after I make a dick sandwich of him with the fence and my magna.

Don't count your cars before they sell...

I pretty much resigned to the fact my car wouldn't sell before I left. I went in warned its a tough time to sell a second hand car right now but I didn't know how tough. At least I got the thrill of being an attempted scam-ee.

So I get a call the other night about the car, not unusual, I've had a few inquiries resulting in NOTHING and I'm sure this will be much the same... this guy wants to see my car NOW (its 7pm, and also "dark" outside) and is willing to give me cash in hand on the spot. He is also pretty aggressive and what I like to call "scary wog" sounding (hey I never claimed to be politically correct). Now ain't a good time for me, I say, how about in the daylight? I WILL CALL TOMORROW he says AND IF I LIKE IT I WILL GIVE YOU THE CASH ON THE SPOT.... ok, point taken.

I'm sure if this one goes ahead, I'll be contacted by the police in regards to the silver magna used as the get-away vehicle during a robbery in Punchbowl.
