Goodbye, my Tiara 

Hits: 50

My first car, given by my father when I was studying in UTM. I think I got the car in year 2002…born in Year 1996. The last time the roadtax got renewed was in Year 2013.

The car has been serving me for many years. Drove from Johor to Perak, and was my wedding car when Lydia married me in her kampung. She said this is the most “classic” wedding car in their kampung history…

I still remembered when we drove the car from Johor back to Perak, the aircond got too cold and frozen till white freezing air came out.

The car was kept in my wife parent’s house for 3 years when we went studying in Japan for 3 years (2005-2008). Then when we returned from Japan, we passed the car to one of our ShaShinKi staff to drive in Johor to work. It has been serving her for several years, until the air-conditional broke down and car got gasoline smell. I paid RM700+ to repair the air conditioner, still the gasoline smell part made it hard to repair or not worth repairing. It has then been sitting in the house car porch for 3-4 years.

Today we said goodbye to her. Suddenly felt really sad when seeing the car being towed away…it is like losing part of our history…

My wife was sad…she cried…she asked to take the car back…but I think it is better to let her go and serve her parts to other Tiara that might still able to utilize her.

Goodbye, my Tiara…thank you for the faithful serving in your lifetime…
