Trying my patience...

[feelstranger]

The old avant is really pushing it’s luck now.  Maybe 200K is a suitable end.
This summer the headliner failed, all over.  
Got an exhaust leak at the cat to pipe connection.
The plastic headlight adjusters failed, leaving my headlights flopping free.
One headlight filled with water, and went out.
Nice little paint bubbles on the rear hatch turned into holes in the sheet metal.
The rebuilt rear brakes I did last year are failing already – lets do it again!
Starter failed on Thursday – Fixed and re-installed it this weekend (rainy days are good for some things), Yay! – then I pulled the car out of the garage, and found a gas leak.  Need to replace 2 of the hard lines.

Noticed a nice 03 A4 for sale nearby.  Though it seems that was a bad year.
Give me strength.

If I wasn’t trying to finish re-siding and roofing my house before the snow flies, I wouldn’t mine all your little issues so much. 
It’s me, not you, really.
