randomness

so how many of you guys BOUGHT your first gen from someone else (outside of your family)...and how many of you guys got the car handed down from a family member?

...i bought mine with 64,000 on the clock for $6000...2.2 cl, auto, premium. now i have almost 71k on the clock!


....i've just noticed when our first gens are parked next to a second gen, the second gen cl are A LOT bigger than ours...but iono, the second gen looks kinda bubbly to me...
