One TikTok user's son cannot seem to part from his family's car after practically growing up with it all these years.to share a 53-second video capturing a bittersweet moment between her son Joshua and the family's car, which was about to be scrapped.In the video, the young boy learned that his family's BMW — a car he had grown up with — was going to be scrapped because its Certificate of Entitlement was expiring. Overwhelmed with despair, he sobbed in the car.
Melissa, 39, who's the Head of Treasury and Tax at Ikea, tried to explain to her son that they could not own two cars at the same time because cars were too expensive to maintain in Singapore. She also shared in the video's captions that since the car had already been extended for five years, they had no choice but to scrap it according to regulations.
The video ended with Joshua's parents asking him to wave and say goodbye to the old car for the last time.
