Sad thoughts about cars

Posted by eileenb on June 13, 2008

I didn’t blog yesterday as I had a sad day.  I crashed my Trans Am on the way out of the airport and spun off the wet road into a ditch damaging all of the front and the rear quarter – fortunately I’m not too badly hurt, but I think the car may be a write off.  The problem is that 2001 Pontiac Trans Am body panels aren’t available in the UK and I’ve  searched on the web for some replacement panels but couldn’t find too many (If you have any links that will find me a rear quarter passenger side panel and rear lights, please let me have the link so I can fix my baby).

I was trying to distract myself today by trying to catch up with all of my RSS feeds and I found this fun post on Robyn’s blog.  I thought I’d do the test for a bit of fun and find out what sort of car I am…

I’m a Chevrolet Corvette!

You’re a classic – powerful, athletic, and competitive. You’re all about winning the race and getting the job done. While you have a practical everyday side, you get wild when anyone pushes your pedal. You hate to lose, but you hardly ever do.

Take the Which Sports Car Are You? quiz.

 

Perhaps it could be my next car – if mine can’t be mended…
