If I were a car

If my body was a car, I would be trading it in for a newer model. I've got bumps, dents, scratches and my headlights are out of focus. My gearbox is seizing up and it takes me hours to reach maximum speed. I overheat for no reason and every time I sneeze cough or laugh either my radiator leaks or my exhaust backfires

Re: If I were a car

Great fun Dave. Don't think I could top it as a description except to add that maybe I need an oil change as all the joints keep seizing up.

Re: If I were a car

I'd be a Mini Cooper with all the above problems and built close to the ground.

Re: If I were a car

If I were a car, I would be a Mercedes convertible. Well built and fast, expensive to run......but starting to fall apart. The roof is fast disappearing......, the chassis is giving way, fluid leaking everywhere, the brakes are fine, but no acceleration. Steering joints are worn, but holding out........suspension is all but gone. Seat is worn, and lumpy........and the lights are dim.
Spares are hard to come by now, so it's a patch and make do. The colour is worn away, and reveals a grey base.

A classic model, and hard to find.

Easy. How much chocolate have you eaten lately. If the cupboard is empty then you are probably in need of more.
