Going to look at another car this arvo, really really hoping this one is actually good. I've had absolutely no luck on my car hunt and it's really bumming me out, I was suppose to have bought one by now but it's just not happened.

You should buy my Mazda 6 wagon off me! But you can’t come around today, it’s… hanging out… with a friend…. (Who’s also a mechanic)

You joke but people really do be acting like that.

I know. I only brought it in January and got screwed. Now I’ve got no choice but to screw someone else. Not fun.

Oh damn, good luck! The car market has always sucked but it's extremely shit at the minute, no one's even subtly dodgy anymore.

I got screwed buying my Mazda 6 too. Though it's in an OK state now, I clearly overpaid for it when I bought it. And this was pre-pandemic car market too. Many regrets

Well that’s good at least, yeah mine hasn’t gone 2 months without some sort of error or cutting out. Nothing can be proven to be wrong with it, but there’s clearly a fault of some kind.
