The car is the main subject, as the owner is going to sell it in exchange for something more practical. That's the thing with getting married and starting a family.
Every consideration is made around the family. At least a three-bedroom unit, a seven-seater, family meal (more bang for my buck), beach/park (no entrance fees needed, cheapo!) etc.
I can sense a tinge of sadness in Jamie's voice as she spoke about the sale of the little red car, which she referred to as "Xiao Hong" (Little Red One). I would too. Bye bye to the "uber-cool", "individuality", and the "wind-in-the-hair freedom". Bye bye to the chick-magnet, and hello grey/faceless MPV. Sometimes, I still try to look cool by winding down the window of my Toyota Wish and let the wind caress my hair....which of course makes it easier for kind-hearted motorists to come up to me and said:" Uncle, you forgot to switch off your hazard lights."
