our new old jalopy!

We are now the proud new owners of a car! This brings the total to three cars we own, but this one is by far the most unique. Once, a long time ago, it was probably considered a sporty island car. Now it is most definitely considered a beater. It is a green (we think) 94 Honda Accord coupe, and to be fair, some parts of it are still in good shape. However over the past few days we have noticed some "interesting" features. For one, the cd/stereo system is possessed. It basically only works on one setting: ear splitting level. Try to turn it down and the volume goes up. Try to turn it up (reverse logic) and it still goes up. The automatic locks do only one thing: unlock the doors. You have to use the key to manually lock it, but the sneaky automatic lock sometimes unlocks it on you, so basically we can't leave anything of value in the car. The ABS light is permanently lit, the former owner told us it has been like that since he bought it. The clock randomly assigns different times every time you start the car, the front is missing the license plates because the bumper is dented and the tint is starting to peel off. There are some interesting Japanese features on this car as well- but don't ask us what they do-we can't understand them. Two new discoveries I made today include the screen that no longer indicates what type of air/fan setting you are on ( this is kind of fun though, because you just press buttons and see what type of air you get) and the sunroof starts vibrating super loudly at any speed over 40 miles/hour - that's 60Km you Canadians! Of course, the best part is the wheel on the right. I have a feeling I might fall in love with this peeling monstrosity- maybe it will replace Molly for the time being...
