Sad day for the cars, but good news for the baby. Good luck with the sales and the life changing experience.

Huh, you need to get rid of $100k worth of stuff for a kid? Buying gold nappies?

Sell the Hardley, keep the rest.

and if you miss the Harley down the track, i'll hook you up cheap with a skateboard and a sack of potatoes! :

Good luck with the fatherhood thing!

It might not be about selling the cars themselves, but selling the debts that go with them... it is hard to pay off those sorts of cars if you have no job and you have kids - especially if selling those debts can enable you to keep something like your house!

Sympathise mate, I hope you can get a job soon, before you have to sell them!

Best of luck with the impending birth too mate, it will be worth it!

I'll take my kids over "toys" any day of the week. Trust me, the moment you are a dad all the toys will be forgotten as just "things".
