Bye bye Bueller
Well the time has come I have to part with Bueller.. a little bit of history here with the old guy...
He is a 1992 jetta so that would make him 14 years old and for a car that it pretty old..
I was the second owner, you see that sounds good right!? but it wasn't the owner before me didn't do anything to Bueller he just drove him with out any check ups or any maintance.
So that leads me to fix up everything and therefore its costing me so much.. putting all this money in to an older car really was hurting me
I had to get two back new doors on him, fix up some of the locks and windows, get new parts for him sorry I don't know what they were called but I know that it stop the issues, new hood parts( wow that is a story in its self let just say my hood came completely off while driving yeah have that one happen to you!) And now my brakes don't work... completely broken. The main cylinder is shot..
Every time I fix something, something else seems to go on me and I can't do it anymore. I drive him for a week and then what do you know I need to fix him up again... so sad really
A week ago I stood on the side of the curb crying over Bueller do I fix him or do I let him go..
You see this was a very hard thing for me it was my first car mine all mine and I pick out the colour that he was going to be, painted him drove him for six months put lots of money and time into him. Now what I just give up and let him go and get something else that is going to last me longer and not have to put so much money in to... so this require asking Tim( the car guy IE my neighbor who did all the work on Bueller) so here I am in tears I say Tim. I need to know what you think do I fix him up or get a new car and he said "get rid of him, I hate to see you put more money into this older car and what's going to go next?"
So that's what I'm doing, saying good bye it's been great I learned how to drive standard and paint a car with tremclad
Now I have to brake all the attachments with him, my last kiss and hug goodbye.
BYE BYE BUELLER

RIP Bueller!!! It is sad to see you go. Seen you through alot. Maybe someone else will fix him up or just use him for parts. Your new care will be great though Julia. Wait til the day you get a brand new car. The feeling is great. It took me like 4 cars or was it 5 before I just went out and bought a new car? I know though how it feels when you have to try and find a new car. I have cried over my cars alot. Always needed fixing and so on. praying that this car will work out for you and it won't need to be fixed for a long time. Cant wait to see the new car. Can't wait to hear what you name him. Love yah!!!
