I think its been 10 years since I had a car. Back then, it was a Suzuki 800 handed down by my mum at a grand COE price of $1. It just passed its 10 year old birthday and I would drive it for 10 years till its death. I recall in its 9th year, it started to sound its own death knell already. So much so by the 10th year, it literally sputtered its way into the salvage yard.
I was just starting to chase my dreams then, and I never expect it would take another 10 years before I could own a ride again.
This time round, it’s again a hand-me down; well, sort of. I bought it off the second hand market, with five years left.
Oh, did I mention it’s a convertible? 😉
