I have had some really good leads. The most promising is an offer of a Subaru Impreza owned by a friend of a friend who is moving to Dubai to work. I am just sorting out how to handle both the registration and transport complications of getting it from Sydney to Melbourne, but everything seems to be working out well so far. Frank –

Saw your request via Justine Brown's Facebook but when I got to your blog I see that what I have to offer is not what you want - my daughter's slightly older, slightly higher milage Hyundai Accent - probably a trade down not up.

I had a cardiac event last year and walk most of the time as a means of warding off another event. Heres the thing I would have to leave you with money from your designated amount, but you could use that to fix the clutch on my car AND to put a better stereo in. Unfortuanately I still think you would be left with excess funds. I propose you apply the residual to A a good Japanese lunch (I am pretending that is zero calorie) B higher insurance premiums (probably on the agenda anyway) C Provision for future vehicular repairs BTW its gunmetal grey so its a bit dark I have a 1989 Alfo 33 I want to sell.
