Hello everyone,

My S has been my daily driver since 2008 and I have been ghosting around the forums since 2009. Thanks to all the great people here I've learned tons about my car and saved bundles of cash. I finally decided to register and jump in. I'll be moving up to Southern Maine in the Spring and I'm worried that I might need to find a new DD. But I don't want to lose my baby!

Buy a beater before winter and sell it after. Some time you can sell it the same price you bought it if you find a good deal. This way you dont have to bother about that car all summer.

I use to keep my beaters and didnt drive them all summer. And when winter came brakes were stock , mufflers had leaks ect... It just feels like winter car die in the summer when you dont use them.

Anyway that is what i use to do before the job suplied a vehicule.

No matter what ... Keep the S
