Timed it so that I finish paying off this car in March 08, to become the wife's. As soon as I go out and get myself an Orion version of the FPV Typhoon The wife starts work this year (finally) - and I convinced her that it's only fair that I get something for my hard work over the years while she was at uni :

Esanda owns mine for atleast another 3 years so not too bad. 3 years is nothing really. But I'll most likely pay out the loan earlier as I did with the previous car. And if I ever sell the AU, they'll most likely own the next one too.
