Stolen Car

Yep, that's right. I'm driving a stolen car.

It was purchased new in Alberta in August 2003, had an extended warranty. It was driven to work and back every day for a total of 30,000 km in it's first year. It was the driver's first standard; he said he was always either stalling it or burning rubber. He put a blue tip exhaust on, the first of many plans to make it pimped out. But that first year was all he had with it, because then it was stolen in Edmonton. A week later it was found in a farmer's field, beaten on every inch with baseball bats, jumped on, bent, windows smashed out and the interior flooded after a week of rain.

Somebody fixed it, somebody drove it another 20,000 km, and somebody brought it to Saskatchewan where I bought it. There are still a lot of blanks in the story, but now I know where the broken glass and mold in the trunk came from.
