Things you do when family comes first. With a newborn at early stage but will need to meet financial commitments for an expanding family, having discussed with my wife and I we decided to give up her AUII Fairmont Ghia for something smaller and alot more economical. We'll be getting her a Hyundai Excel, would help alot when petrol prices are constantly on the rise. We'll both be sad cos' we both love the fairmont. I'll keep the BA Wagon as it will be our main family car.

Totally understandable Pete. Family comes first.
