Ok, here's the situation: (I've put some links in to pics of similar cars)
I have a 6 year old Ford Ka.

It's starting to get a little tired, but it's still a good little car and will go for a while yet. It won't be worth much to sell, maybe £800?
My husband drive a mercedes c240.

He has to drive an hour each way to work every day and the car was costing him a lot in petrol. So, he's bought a new car, a mercedes A class diesel,

to drive to work each day. He didn't tell me he was going to buy the car he just surprised me with it. How is that a good surprise - "ta da - I've bough MYSELF a new car!"
What?
So I asked what's the plan - we now have 3 cars. He said - your Ka is going. So his plan was for me to drive his big old mercedes around, which will cost me more in tax, petrol and insurance, and he will drive the a class.
I'm really sad to sell my car though - I'm really emotionally attached to it.
So, he gets 2 cars that he's chosen and likes and can drive whenever he wants, and I get - to sell my car. I'm not happy. Plus, all his family and our friends, who knew he was buying the car, have been calling me, asking if I like my new car - they thought the a class was for me, and he didn't correct them!
I would be happy driving the a class around, it's small and nice, whereas the other one is too big.
HELP! Am I just being a pain in the ass for nothing?
What do you think?
