Brake Pad Replacement

I am so deathly afraid of birds… it’s not even funny how afraid I am. I was driving home from work the other day and a flock of birds started flying behind my car. I don’t know whether they were migrating or just sensed my pure fear, but they were genuinely following my car for …

Where’s His Car?

I’ve been on four dates with this guy who seems pretty decent. I met him online, as you do in the twenty-first century, and I was pleasantly surprised! I’ve had so many failed first dates that I pretty much go into them now expecting them to go wrong. Online dating is great because it’s easy …

Eight Car Repairs

The last time we spoke, I was either thinking about purchasing a rundown car, or I had just purchased it. I can’t remember the exact timeline because I was so caught up in counting all my dividends and choosing old luxury cars to buy. I chose one (I won’t tell you the make and model …

Road Trip!

I’m going on a road trip! Starting in Toowoomba, I’m going to drive right up to Tropical North Queensland. I’ve taken three weeks off and I’m going to do a road trip with my three best friends. We’re going to take my car because it’s the newest and I’ve just had my most recent logbook …

Mechanic Needed

I saw the most bizarre thing last night… I think. I looked out my window at about 3:00 am when I woke up to go to the bathroom and there was a man putting something on the windscreen of my car. I’m a woman who lives alone and so I wasn’t going to go out …

Best Local Mechanic

Living in Ringwood has a lot of perks – but none are better than the awesome mechanic we have in our very own backyard. People drive hours to get a car service from our local mechanic and I’m lucky enough to be able to walk there if I want to. Seriously, if you ask anyone …

Necessary Aircon Regas

I don’t know if anyone else relates to this but how nice is it when you’re driving and then the sun comes perfectly through the windshield. I’m talking about when the sun comes through at a height where it doesn’t get into your eyes, but is still high enough to warm your entire body so …

Necessary Roadworthy

I have a really bad track record with buying second hand cars. I’m not sure what it is. I don’t know if I’m just too trusting, too naive or if the people I’ve bought my cars off are just really good liars. But whatever it is, I’ve had enough. I’m about to buy my third …

Car Breakdown Escape

I’m a firm believer that in life, you win some and you lose some. Everything happens for a reason and things even out in the wash. Okay, that’s probably enough sayings for the time being, but they all have a lot of truth to them. Take it from me, I just had one of the …
