Daisy retires

It was a sad day yesterday. I cancelled the car insurance, cleared out my Mum’s garage, reversed Daisy in, grabbed the tax disc on the way out and shut the door. I used to use her lots, away most weekends, back to Bath and generally nipping around. But recently I’ve started to use her less and less. She costs a fair bit too, £50 a month, £200 a year Car Tax and then the MOT and Diesel. It’s a shame but I’m taking her off the road for a while to see how I get on without a car. I’ve signed up to Street Car so I can use a car when I need it but I don’t see when I will yet. I know plenty of people who have cars and can always borrow the one from work.

She’s served me well. 30,000 miles, a trip to Les Arcs one year and countless muddy bikes in the bike. Daisy, we salute you!

Daisy daisy, I'm so in love with you..
