W: Why did you sell the car?
M: It was giving me too much trouble. I was spending so much money on it that I was spending more money than it was worth. Unfortunately, of course, when you actually sell the car, you’ve already spent the money on it, so you lose both ways.
W: What was wrong with your old car?
M: The one I’d got was on its last legs really, the engine needed a lot of repairs and the gearbox was continually giving trouble, so I decided to change it.
W: Is this one good?
M: Yes, it hasn’t given me any trouble at all. It’s more comfortable, it’s newer and more reliable. The other one, the old one, when I set off on a journey, gave me sore of fearing that I may not get to the other end, because it had broken down so many times. But this one, I can set off with quite a lot of confidence that I’m going to be able to get the other end.
W: Was this a new car or a second-hand one?
M: It was second-hand when I bought it. It’s two and a half years old now.
W: Why did you choose this particular car?
M: Er, a number of reasons. One, it’s a very comfortable car inside. It is, a very, well, it’s quite a fast car. And, but the main reason is because I think it looks nice. I think I want a car to look nice. It’s also a family car. It’s got four full seats.
W: I’m surprised that you should say you buy a car because you like the look of it, because that would be the reason why I would buy a car.
