Mine does not come under reluctant sale, more like a necessary sale. My much loved and cherished Daimler V8 250 Saloon. Petrol prices were going through the roof in the 70s, and this was a much travelled vehicle. I had not long rebuilt an engine and put in it. 20,000 miles later, I found it was emptying my wage packet quicker than I could put money in, so ,head over heart, it had to be passed on. A comforting fact was the young man who bought it was very enthusiastic about giving it some loving tender care.
