People usually take pics and stuff but I just did not have it me to do all that. Last night I did not sleep properly.
BHPian jonesanto recently shared this with other enthusiasts.
All good things come to an end:
In the last 6 six months I would have driven Elantra probably for about 500km and car being old and not regularly using started showing small issues.
Cabin light went kaput for the first time in 17 years.
One rear window not working for the first time in 17 years.
Rear number plate light, it has two bulb and one went kaput for the first time in 17 years.
Last week that after washing noticed left side headlight fogging up, car has not hit anywhere, and parked under proper shade all the time. Could be the rubber beading getting weak.
AC control unit backlit was not working then it came back on.
So basically, everything related to electrical and fixed all issues except for headlight fog issue.
My cousin who is back from abroad starting a business in Bangalore, he offered to purchase the car. I said “It’s not for sale. If you want, you can use it.” But car in my name and using it in Bangalore and me still being in Kerala could complicate thing if there is any incident. Last week he visited again for business purpose and took Elantra to Bangalore and back and offered to purchase the car again.
This guy is a car enthusiast and I know he will take care of the car. Even though I love the car dearly, not being used on a regular basic creating problems and I feel like I am slowly killing the car. It’s better to give it to someone who will actually use it. Car still got plenty of life left in her.
So last evening the car has gone to Bangalore and when I go there in December will finish the paper works.

Paragsachania’s Wagon R is sold, CrAzY dRiVeR’s Punto is sold, though not in their league, now Elantra is also almost gone.
It feels right. But it’s emotional. Saying goodbye to anything you’ve done that long is hard.
Time to face the music and move on.
