I sold Cherry today. Im feeling pretty sad about it - Cherry was the most fun car I think I will ever own. I learnt to drive manual in Cherry, I learnt to fix cars (well, volksies) with Cherry, and I met some really cool people in the VW scene with Cherry.
I had the most fun ever driving Cherry.
I had my first ever published photo - and it was Cherry.
This is that photo. It was included in the 2005 Aussieveedubbers calendar.
She has basically spent the last 3 years sitting in my parents carport - waiting for me to have the time to fix her up... the restoration I had planned was going to be classic, low and fast.
Sometimes, plans just dont go according to plan.
Sometimes, you realise you just aren't old enough to have a 'toy'
And sometimes, you have to let go and make room for the future.
In a few months, i'll get a new VW polo diesel - a red one. I think I already have a name for her.
