Well it hasn't come to that just yet. But I will in that position if something does not change.
I have also parked the car up for years at a time when things have got tight. Long time members here may remember I even sold 40% of my car once so that I could get it back on the road after years of it just sitting there. Had to borrow the money to buy that back eventually.
Running a car like this in the UK is VERY expensive and I just don't earn enough to make it an easy choice to keep.
I have priced it on the high side for the UK market. Not many old yank cars sell for that sort of money over here. If it sells at that price then I will be able to live a lot easier for the next few years and get some urgent repairs to the house done. But mainly it will have to go towards reducing my large mortgage repayments so I have a bit more slack from month to month.
If it does not sell at that price I would rather keep it and struggle on. It is only worth selling if it sells for enough money. So I will not be reducing the price to make it sell.
It's in the hands of the Gods now. Maybe it will be in the hands of some rich European later.
