I suppose one could say it's a "mini" regret.
My poor Errol, lovely little 1971 Mini Clubman, could run for a week on spare change. How I loved him, efficient growly little motor, I can still hear him, so sweet... and the smell, I can still smell him sometimes, my handsome little Errol, with his shiny hubcaps and babypoo paint. I sold him, heartless bitch that I was, seven years ago now. I have not for one moment felt right with that, I miss my Errol.
I have not bonded with the current car, so it sells tomorrow. Be gone car of no character! Car that in three years could not find a name, car that does not inspire loyalty, does not inspire the financial sacrifice of keeping it on the road.
Perhaps one day I will be reunited with my little Errol, or one of his brothers or sisters. One day Errols hubcaps will ride again!
