End of an Era! R.I.P. Munchkin

Alas the life that I shared with my Jolly Green Munchkin has come to an end... I will miss the character of the Munchkin... She sometimes got hot under the bonnet and would regularly spit and sputter in a voice so loud that conversation inside was next to impossible.
She leaked oil so badly that I often felt that I must have, by now, bought at least a lug-nut on a Bentley belonging to an oil company CEO.

Most of the dozen people that have ridden in her deserve some kind of recognition for surviving a typical encounter with the JGM.

She was a good, dependable car. May she find peace and happiness in the great freeway in the sky!

my new car will never replace the Munchkin... She can only hope to fill the empty tire tracks left behind by the Munchkin.

I was looking thru some old pictures and came across one of the JGM's baby pictures... taken before her lines started to sag, before her bonnet and wings became speckled with aging signs of brown and grey!

Tail gate parties just wont be the same without the JGM. Just remember, she's in a happier place now.

So what did you buy to try to fill JGM's void? A pink Yugo? πŸ˜‰
