So to keep the Volvos or not...HELP!
I have been at debate with myself this last week as to weather or not I should sell my Volvos. I love them don't get me wrong, heck one was my first car. But I own a 1983 500SL, a 1983 BMW 633 CSI, 1988 Volvo 244 (my first car) and a 1992 Volvo 745 Turbo wagon, my camping/ daily driver...aka swedish SUV. I was quite content until last week. I had recieved an amazing offer on both cars, and we had reached a deal. A day before the deal was to close, I recieved a rude message from the individual stating that I was a jerk for selling him two cars above book. Well he did make the offer after all and I accepted.
So, that deal is off. I know that I could sell both Volvos to close to the price that he was going to pay, simply becasue of the condition. I could also just sell one. I could also keep both. It might be foolish to sell both, but I could get something like a 540 wagon to repalce the two of them. I could also just sell the 244, but it was my first car.
I guess I faced with the temptation to sell two perfectly good Volvos to buy something sexier. But If I own these two cars without issues, maybe I sould hold on to them. Then again maybe I should take the money and run.
The other issue is that I'm a single guy, and being seen in a Volvo, a nice Volvo yet may not be the best for my image. Then agaon, I don't want a women to judge me by my car. That's why the Mercedes and BMW never go out on a first date.
Finally, I think this may just be a result of a quater life crises, as I'm nearing the old age of 25.
The other issues may just be an ego issue, in that a freind of mine said that I would never see that kind of money for those cars again. Well I know they would sell as they recieve compliments etc etc. So, I'm I thinking of selling just to coinvince him I did not blow it....no that's silly but just a thought.
HELP!!!!
