I am so lucky that my garage is full. There is a 1975 Jaguar XJS on CL. The VIN is UG2W51073BW which puts the build date somewhere in November 1975. The owner lady told me the price is very negotiable ($7.5k is way too much). The water pump is bone dry, but might not actually be broken. I am so lucky that my garage is already full of cars.

You still have room in the driveway!!! Go for it.

 

Nope. That's where my 1988 XJS and my Saturn go. :-)

 

Saturn! Haven't seen one of those on the road in a long, long time. Doesn't someone keep threatening to revive it?

 

Saturn made great quirky little plastic cars. And then GM screwed it up by importing Opels and trying to sell them as Saturns. A Saturn will run forever as long as you keep pouring oil into it faster than it burns it. The first generation coupes are really cute. If they had 200 hp instead of 124 hp they would be even more fun.

 

Sell the Saturn, problem solved.
Build another garage, problem solved.
Buy a car cover and park it out back, problem solved.
Stop looking at Craiglist, problem solved.
You know you are not going to stop!

I have done all the above.
I no longer have Auto Trader and Cars.com as shortcuts on my computer.
I only get the shakes once and a while now, problem solved... ish.

 

You got that right.
