The Sebastian Car Search

It’s been a odyssey all over town trying to find an appropriate vehicle for Sebastian. There are a lot of cars, but

some are too big and

some are too black.

Even the small ones are too big and sometimes too black. I looked at a lot of cars. I had almost given up hope of finding a car that was just the right size until

I arrived at the Mini dealership where I saw this.

No. Not the spice orange one. The red one beside it. Can you see it?

I think it’s just the right size for Sebastian. He will be so excited. I can’t wait to tell him!

    1. Hi Val,

      He is kind of lucky, isn't he? It must be the smallest car on any dealership lot!

  2. We are excited for you Sebastian. Does this mean you need to sit for a drivers licence? I can just see you zipping around, and running a muck.

    1. Hi Wilbur,

      Well, we don't have it yet. I think we'll probably have to do some negotiating first. Now I didn't think about Sebastian running amuck. Hm-m-m. Maybe I didn't give this enough thought! :D

    1. Hi Mari,

      I think he will be if we can get it at a good price!

  4. Yippee, did you buy it for Sebastian, Miss Ginger? Is it going to be a prezzie? When will he get to "drive" it home? Inquiring minds want to know...... (giggle).

    1. Hi Prudence,

      I didn't buy it but I did tell them we are seriously interested so they are holding it for a few days. I need to get Sebastian to recount his money again to see if he has enough.

    1. Hi Jeanie,

      I am so glad that you think Sebastian will like it. I think he will too!

  6. If Sebastian needs another dollar just let me know. I'm sure between Kate and I and Sophie we could come up with it. : )

    1. Hi Tricia,

      Are you so sweet and generous! That's a very nice offer. I hope that Sebastian can manage this one on his own. I'll tell him how many great admirers he has!

    1. Hi Cheryl,

      Thanks so much! I hope he will love it! Finding that car really was a stroke of good fortune!

  8. HAHA!!! Dot certainly enjoys the one around here that he shares with everyone. I hope you'll be able to get new custom license plates though... the ones on the car are sort of mysterious... does Ken really love himself that much? 0_0

    1. Hi Heather,

      Dot must be one smart bear! Our Mini dealership is excellent so I'm sure if Sebastian purchases this car, they will make it ALL his. Ken? Who's Ken? :D

  9. That does look like the perfect size for Sebastian! Glad you might have found one - not every dealership carries those mini cars. ;)

    1. Hi K. Joy,

      We do have a terrific Mini dealership! And we are lucky they have a car on the lot that seems to be just right for Sebastian!

  11. That looks like the perfect size. Do they accept payment in cookies?

    1. Hi Jack & The Clan,

      I am going to check on that because I'm fairly certain that Sebastian has lots of those!

  12. Hey Ginger,
    That will be great for Sebastian - the red is just the colour he was using in his drawings. I hope you can get it for 97c, but maybe the dealer will take a cookie too. I hope he gets a good numberplate.
    I think I'll have to start work on Alan. He's a bit slow, so I should be able to get him to agree that I need a car too before he even realises what he's agreeing to. After all if Sebastian comes over here he'll need a lift. What's more Jack is coming on holiday with us and if I can get a car too then we can zip around France together.
    Hugs,
    Jock

    1. Hi Jock,

      I hope that you are right about the price and the number plate. What's considered good over there?

      If you get Alan to agree to getting you a car before he knows what you've done, perhaps you can start offering classes on your technique.

      It would be great to get all the guys together one day wouldn't it? What a hoot that would be!!

      Please post lots of photos of your trip to France!

    2. HI Ginger. We have funny number plates over here. They start with two letters (the first tells you the part of the country), followed by two numbers (for the year) and three letters. So a good number for Sebastian might be:
      SB13 MIN That is a Scottish number (the S at the start tells you) but you can make it mean Sebastian Bear's 2013 Mini!
      Hugs,
      Jock

    3. Hi Jock,

      That's very interesting. Here unless you ask for (& pay for) something special, you just get a random collection of letters and numbers. Maybe I should check to see if SB13MIN is taken?!

      Thanks for the explanation! You're so wise.
