My time at Truro College is coming to an end, I only have two days left to go and work is being piled on. This story is relevant for two reasons. Firstly I haven't been able to blog every day because I've been working like heck and been trying to enjoy myself. My Youtube presence has been increased too and unfortunately it has just squeezed out my blog. For that I apologise.
The second reason why the story is relevant is even sadder and more regrettable. My time with my car and my time as a motorist is coming to an end. Since I'm going to Uni after the summer holidays and considering I won't be needing my car over the holidays, I'm going to be selling it. I'm not really sure how to put in words how I'm feeling about this. Sad is probably the best word to describe it. Truth is, I've had many adventures in this car, I've scraped it up in a multistory car park, I've not done 110mph in it, I've seen it through sickness and it carried me to my interview with my university like a good friend, comforting me all the way through that nervous drive.
Truth is that I've become rather fond of this car. It's the way it drives really, the straight line speed is a subject I'd rather ignore but the way it goes round corners is a different story. The wheel has so much feel that I've never lacked confidence when driving it. It corners very keenly and you can feel it. I also like the suspension. It's not great in the corners at controlling the lean but it deals with bumps very well. I love trundling down a country B road (like the ones around my Dads house) and feeling it bounce around. It's not silly but it's bouncy and feels like your sitting on a trampoline and slightly rocking, it's great.
I really am not looking forward to selling it but I must. I have grown fond of the car for all the reasons I've mentioned above but also because it's my first car. I'm going to be selling it for £900, hopefully. Any takers? E mail me at glenchun.@hotmail.co.uk Bear in mind I've got two more weeks still to go.
