Hi Gert I sold it for $AUD900 to an bother guy unregistered. It had a "Pink Slip" which means he could get it registered without another inspection. He was an old Hippie about 50 years out of his time hehe. Can't remember where you are sorry.

Thank you Sankey for letting me know that you sold your car.

I hope someone is able to take it off your hands and give it a nice home. I'm sure it's sad because you're closing another chapter but at least you don't have to worry about the upkeep that comes with it.

Great idea. I think I will place a sign on my car for sale and bring all the neighbors to the windows. LOL. Bought a motorhome oce and it sit there costing every day. Got rid of the thing.

Wish I could have had a motor home. Sound like the publishing must be doing alright. Pray I can get my stuff published. Thanks for the great review. God Bless.
Comment from judiverse
It looks like your car could still see plenty of action. You will surely find a serious buyer for that. Looks well cared for, too. Sounds like registration there must be pretty high. Your poem has a nice rhyme, and there's a kind of wistful quality about it. You could have entered it in one of the contests for poems of a limited number of words. judi

This is a very well written piece about your vehicle. It is a very nice looking vehicle, but it comes a time when we just don't need some things anymore. I pray you get it taken care of without losing more money my friend. Blessings, Teri

Well Bro there are a few Aussies around here but I have been advertising it lots of places and we are looking to God and hopefully might have a sale today...not through here though hehe. Thanks for the lovely review.
Comment from barbara.wilkey
I hope somebody comes and takes it away too. I feel you should get a decent price for it. I never understand why some cars sell for what I consider way too much and others only go for what seems like pennies. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks Barbara. The sad thing is the poor old MItsubishi Magna particularly does not keep its value. A mechanic friend of mine claimed the Magna series sent Mitsubishi broke...I am not sure about that. It is a wonderful car and we are missing and will miss both not driving it anymore.

Hi Stanley. Nice to see you posting again. Did you consider donating your truck? We had a car we were going to junk but then donated it. We got a two thousand dollars USD tax deduction. Even scrap metal is worth something. Good luck. Thank you for sharing

Yeah I did think of giving it to our church but they don't want the maintenance cost etc. As I posted to you above I hopefully have a buyer today. We are Pensioners already so not taxpayers anymore. Good idea though. Appreciate the lovely review.
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written short poem about advertising and selling items are always a night mare. The buyers always try to rip you off and they are getting the bargain of a lifetime to brag about.

yep well hoping we have a buyer coming tomorrow. I had to Cell him to tell him it does have disabled controls but that by law it has to be able to be driven normally as well. Thanks for coming by.

If you can sell it without having to spend any money, great, but don't let someone try to talk you into wasting your money because they are cheap. It is nice looking car. What is rego?

Licensing or covering tom drive on public roads. I forget what they call that in USA. It includes compulsory Third Party Personal Insurance for any injury or death of someone ruin over or hurt in a car accident. IN Australia under 30's have to pay more than$700 a year for the CTP as it is called PLu7s a registration fee which includes road tax and so on. The guy that wanted the car for the $999 including Registration would have been paying me virtually nothing for the car as a pensioner I would have had to pay the CTP for over 30's is lower this year at $AUD500 something. It only just came down from nearly $700...due to more enforcement on young drivers. Thansk for coming by.
