Sold the BMW 740...

... and bought an '02 Honda CR-V.

Next on the list is the S600.

Time to simplify!

Nothing. It's a waste right now.

I'll probably keep it down to the CR-V and diesel wagon.

It must be hard, letting go of the S600.

Not at all. It'll be a sense of relief. Lower insurance, no worries about repair etc.

The wagon has decent tires, good enough for the snow.

You'd think finances, but that's not the case.

It's time to streamline life.

Yeah I know how you feel, I'm looking to simplify as well. But I can't sell the SDL because it isn't worth anything. If I could find a safe dry somewhat heated garage where I could store it for a few years I would.


The problem with owning an S600 and that BMW too is pretty much any car is going to be a "downgrade" from them. Thats the problem with having the best.

Who was it that rode in your car, and lived to tell about it here?? Kuan??



I wonder if he can talk you out of it.
