I know he looks after cars, so I thought yeah fine, thinkin that in a year or so I would buy it back, sold it to him, 2 weeks later i'm on the way to drop the misses off at work and spot an accident up ahead, road closed but I can see its a magenta granada cosworth. knowing at that time I hadn't seen another one in that colour about round here I asked the copper the reg, it was mine, my mate lost it, spun out and hit a car on the other side killing the driver, my mate had broken collar bone ribs, wrist alll fucked up an stuff, So yeah i regret selling it, 1 because I loved the car, 2 if i hadn't of sold it my mate probably wouldn't have killed someone, felt slightly to blame as he only ever had little 1.2 fiestas. but I got over it, and bought the one I have now. and my mate is all better.
mate thats bad stuff, i dont think i would want to sell it to a mate, i'd just start resenting them for having it.
