Re: Let's talk about cars
I think it was supposed to be a surprise, so all he told his parents was the colour, that it was metallic green. His mother told me this, and I replied that I thought he had bought a BMW. He showed up in a 5 series BMW.

Re: Let's talk about cars
Back when I was a student, I lodged with a family, and their eldest son, who had finished uni and moved out, was coming over on the weekend to show off his "new" (used) car.
I think it was supposed to be a surprise, so all he told his parents was the colour, that it was metallic green. His mother told me this, and I replied that I thought he had bought a BMW. He showed up in a 5 series BMW.

I seem to have wandered off piste and strayed into unmarked territory....
This was our car when I was little, or pretty damn close. I used to be sat on the fold-down armrest on the front seat for a better view
