I want my money back!

My car is asking for a tank refill. Again. Last time it did that was barely 20 months ago!

This seems to be a recurring problem, but unfortunately, dealer warranty has expired 15 years ago. I'm stumped...

@DanielaKEngert

I've almost driven my electric car into a gas station a few times, thinking "it's been so long ago I've been to one of these, it can't possibly not be empty".

It was completely empty. And it'll remain empty, because it doesn't have any space for gas.

@dascandy Cool!

Replacing my car with an electric one doesn't make ecological sense, despite all the charging points in my neighbourhood. People are asking me when I bought my shiny new car (hint: it's 16 years old, clocking 57k kilometres), it will at least last until my retirement (officially less than 6 years from now). The existing car in my garage spot is in a perfectly usable state (albeit economically worth 0€), a new car requires at least the resources to produce it and is expensive.

@DanielaKEngert We tried to keep our old car until it rusted through.

We underestimated it by a week. New car was already ordered, but a week before delivery it rusted through its shocks.
