Savannah: wow, it that your sports car?
Owen: yes, do you like it?
S: I love it! I used to always want to drive a green jaguar. Is it in good condition?
O: it looks good on the outside, but the inside is a different story. It needs a lot of servicing before it can go out on the roads again.
S: what's wrong with it?
O: well, first of all, it needs a new engine, which is extremely expensive.
S: when's the last time you had it serviced?
O: it must have been a few years ago now.
S: I thought all cars needed regular servicing on a yearly basis.
O: they do. Once my son was born, there was no reason to drive this car anymore. It's only a two-seater, you know!
S: what else is wrong with it?
O: the heating controls don't work anymore, so it always feels like it's about 100 degrees in the car—even in the summer!
S: anything else?
O: the brakes don't really work that well anymore either.
S: why don't you get it all fixed?
O: it costs more than you think to run a car---especially when there are so many things wrong with it!
S: well, let me know when you can get it fixed. I’d love to go for a ride in it!
