I'd sell it to pay its taxes.

Lets see, A British car (rubbish), made in Mexico (more rubbish), shipping from east coast (expensive), a German engine (quality). I would refuse it and hope the second place winner gets a chance.Laugh

Is it electric or a gas guzzler? (since I'm not doing the cruise, and could only be induced to go by one thing, and a car isn't that one thing, this is all academic) Cool

I DO need a new car, but this isn't my idea of a choice. Seems more like an ad on wheels.

Moot question for me since I'm excluded from the chance of winning it. But if I wasn't and did, I'd keep it and be sorely tempted to get it repainted (leaving the Union Jack alone).

BMW makes a pretty good car. http://www.thecarconnection.co.....rdtop_2014

I wouldn't refuse any new car given to me.

I have a friend who used to help me find cars when I was poor. He could probably find me a new one, if I needed it, for less than it would cost to replace a BMW lug nut. (Hi, Clarence!)

I have a fairly new car sitting in the garage... but it's a gas guzzler and it's really large. I'm too used to small compact and economy cars. Cheap is good, my Ranger was dirt cheap when I got it, and here 15 years later it's still rolling. Now if I can just get that sour milk stink out from under the seat.... Fabreeze....

I wonder how much money the taxpayers spent on my mistaken trouble shooting on all those planes I fixed over the years. All the broken bulbs and stripped screws, fried relays .... oh if you only knew how planes were put together.....

If I kept it, I would lose the keys.

I think it's the snow. Last night, I went to Trader Joe's after work. A lady, unfamiliar with the local tradition of celebrating snow storms by jamming checkout lines to buy bread and milk, asked where all the groceries were. Posing as somebody cool enough to actually be in Trader Joe's, I told her, "They're all around, if you but believe." I guess I was slaughtering PInder. She got it, and replied with a hand motion, "Spirit Groceries!"

It's all around if we could but perceive.... gosh did Mike or Graeme write that? Nice one. I bopped into Trader Joe's yesterday myself, just to check it out (sometimes something cool is in there, I must consult the Fearless Flyer) but mostly it seemed the same stuff in my local store at higher prices. I did seriously consider buying some potted herbs, I need to rework my herb garden when it gets warmer. Don't know if there's more snow on the way.

Parsley and mint need replants.
