New Car

We have always got a time where we suffer buyers remorse. When brought my last car, little did I realise the problems that would happen afterwards. It wasn’t new, but wasn’t a cheap buy.

My Chevrolet, in the last two years, has had a new radiator, clutch, glowsticks, and the diesel filter keeps clogging up. That is an easy fix, and usually a long journey clears it.

There is a meme called Rusty Chevrolet, not sure it’s funny, but it is a catchy tune.

It does drive nice, and when we go on holiday, because it is a seven seater, can take my family on holiday together. So part of me regrets buying it, but it isn’t the first car we’ve brought that has had problems.

Our first car cost 200 pounds, and on its first MOT, the mechanic couldn’t pass it because of large holes underneath.

At least our Chevrolet passed its MOT this year and will give us another year.

    1. An MOT (Ministry of Transport) test is an annual legal inspection for vehicles in the UK—typically required once a car turns three years old—to ensure they meet minimum safety, roadworthiness, and environmental standards. It checks components like brakes, lights, tyres, and emissions, but does not cover the engine or gearbox condition.

    1. If I do need a new car it will be an automatic. My husband finds it difficult to be in the right gear because he drove a automatic lorry, and he has a hearing loss and cannot hear when the car is in pain.
