Taking a look at family cars

Stefan — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 14:00:37 +0000

As we are traveling with dog, kiddo and lots of other stuff like strollers, babybed, dogfood, laptops, camera-equipment and stuff we would like to get a bigger family car than the current one. Today ben and i started looking at a first bunch of em.

met up with a bunch of old colleagues, which was nice. did not take any more photos, so this has to give as a reminder for the day

I decided that it is time to say goodbye … after 10 awesome years with Amy Amazone

Stefan — Tue, 31 Mar 2009 20:59:14 +0000

she has been the greatest and most reliable car i have ever owned so far, which is amazing as we have owned brandnew cars as daily drivers, also. the only car that would start up with a snap in the winter (without any care for the last couple of months) and never let us down was amy.
amy has been upgraded over the years on the technical side but somehow i never got around to work on the chassis, so after all that time she got a bit of rusty and re-doin her body would have costed me a lot of money. as you all know i am a daddy now and there are more important things to put your money into, other than keeping multiple oldtimers and cars running. i guess that means i am growing up

as i am also restaurating a 1958 chevrolet biscayne/bel air i decided to finally let go and give her into good hands.
so today i sold her to a young guy and his father, that are now completly reworking amys body and i bet they will have another 10 years or more with her.

bye bye my dear amy and thanks for all the great rides. you are forever in our hearts and we will miss you!

Amy Amazon at the technical inspection

Amy got her technical inspection, she actually did good, with a bit of known things to fix for the new 2 year license.
