We have been talking about it since June when her current car started becoming unreliable. Unfortuntely, the new car will be delivered in November. What precipitated her action on the car buying was...more car problems. Due to procrastination and indecision, we now have to have a couple more thousand dollars in repairs to her current car to drive it until Nov. Someone will get a well-maintained, used Volvo at a cheap price out of our delay. TW Were you able to persuade her to get the red Audi? Ha! No, she went with the nearly identical Volvo, XC70. This one is a slightly different shade of blue. I say it represents a lack of imagination and a lot of fiscal responsibility. The XC70 is a lot cheaper. Perhaps, the money saved means I will be able to buy the red Audi TTS. TW |
