I was gifted a really nice European sports car recently by a very dear family friend. The car is over 20 years old and spent the last year sitting in their garage. The car was very well cared for but barely driven. Once I got it and started to drive it regularly it started to have mechanical issues, mostly just a function of time. However European cars are very expensive to repair and I don’t have the money to keep up with the repairs. I don’t want to seem ungrateful as I am beyond grateful for such a thoughtful gift, but I am looking to possibly sell it and put the funds toward something a little more practical and manageable. NOTE——-
I am certain this was NOT a case of them unloading the car before they had to make expensive repairs. I also don’t want to tell them how much the repair estimates are and make them feel guilty. Their friendship is far more important than any car or money

Every mechanic or professional tradesman loves their particular tool truck. (SnapOn Mac Matco et al) and ‘their brand’ is more often than not is a hill they are willing to die on. Having said that I get most of my tools from Harbor Freight. The quality is comparable and in some cases better than the trucks. And the price tag? Substantially lower in most cases. My wallet is greatful too 😎
