The good news however is that finally I did manage to break the jinx. The recent update from me is that I have purchased a car. My new car (technically its a used car, and I am its proud 2nd Owner) is a 1997 Nissan Altima. It's 13 years old but still thanks to its earlier owner, in pretty good shape. There were a few niggles like the radiator which I got fixed but overall the ride quality was smooth and for a tall person like me its very spacious. Lastly the clincher was the price.
