Triumph Stag has been sold

I cannot believe that I could ever sell the Triumph Stag that I have owned for nearly 20 years but I did.
It's been sitting in my garage for 2 years without turning a wheel and to be honest another summer was coming and I couldn't justify putting it on the road again as my mileage on my main car was well below it's contracted allowance and so I needed to put the miles on it this time.
Now I've put the Stag up for sale before a couple of times and when the calls started to come in I've changed my mind and told them it's been sold, wasting everyones time and money. This time though I decided to put it up for sale without getting it ready for the road so not serviced no mot and untaxed and stored for the last 2 years.
The phone never stopped ringing, the first person to call viewed the car on the same afternoon and bought it without even test driving it, I was amazed! He came back the next day with the full asking price in cash and arranged for a trailer to transport the car to his home the following week.
In the meantime I was fielding a continuous stream of calls from disappointed buyers some of whom even offered more than the asking price when they learned that the car was still in the garage waiting to be collected.
It's been a month since I sold the car and I'm already missing it and have caught myself looking them up again on Autotrader to see if I see one I like, this is daft.
