So, recently - I came into a bit of extra money. Nothing huge mind you, but enough so that I was looking forward to splurging on myself a bit. What would I get?

It's a shame that it's sat in the driveway that long. No one wanting to take the time to really figure out what was wrong with it. Yes, a...
