Continuing our Hypotheticals...

G'day all. I have been thinking of this for a while now, as it was a contributing factor to my split from my last girlfriend.

Let's say you are in a very happy Relationship/marriage. You love your Girlfriend/Wife unconditionally, and her you. however, you love your beast. your car that is. work on it when you can, love it, etc etc. Your superior other does not, however, love the beast. she can't stand the beast. but hey, she puts up with it. until one day, she says the dreaded words...."its me or the car". now, bear in mind you LOVE her, would give the world for her. she's everything to you. but so is the car! what on earth do you do? It's a rock and a hard place, and this is what i broke up with my last G/F for. I wont be going into the details but lets just say i chose wisely
So. what is everyone's thoughts on this?

Any variables can be added eg: what type of car, how fanatical you are, etc.
If flappist has no problem, let's call this Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back. hehe.
