The car that almost refuses to move

Thats my car....An old Maruti 800 that has withered many a storm.In fact its withstood so many learners that it can now be called an Experienced Learner Vehicle(ELV).First it was my bro then for some time my mom n now me...but it refuses to give up.One might say its got accustomed to the panicky turns,the frequent stops and the angry drivers around it.But it still drives on.

It was only yesterday that i had driven my mom to the market(thats my present role..for enquiries n driver opportunities u can contact me....) ,and then when it was time to return,I took the emperors throne and started my old horse.With everything in place I tried to put the car in the first gear(the cars gearbox is sort of rusty so it requires some extra effort),but then the gear refused to budge.I tried a second time with all my might but without success.I was concerned.Was it the beginning of the end...I freaked out n saw my mom looking at me fighting with the gears.And then it came.....
She casually remarked,"How about pressing the clutch for starters?".That m sure seals the story for you.

Its now an old white Dabba,but wears its name with pride. You try going above 60kmph and it shows its rage in this age.Its wheels start rattling n joints start threatening.N you reluctantly settle for a slow 50.It stands right below a tree in front of my house which showers it with flowers throughout the season.
Symbolic.Extremely symbolic I would say.Perhaps praising its victories or probably glorifying the end.
