Paris Hilton made several attempts to sell her old car.She was having a lot of problems finding a buyer because the car had 340，000 miles on it.She discussed her problem with Nicole Richie.
Nicole Richie suggested，“There may be a chance to sell that car easier，but it's not going to be legal.”
“That doesn't matter at all.”replied Paris Hilton.“All that matters is that I am able to sell this car.”
“Alright.”replied Nicole.In a quiet voice，she told Paris：“Here is the address of a friend of mine.He owns a car repair shop around.Tell him I sent you，and he will turn the counter back on your car to 40，000 miles.Then it shouldn't be a problem to sell your car.”
The following weekend，the Paris Hilton took a trip to the mechanic on the Nicole's advice.
About one month after that，both of them met and Nicole asked，“Have you sell your car？”
“No！”replied Paris Hilton.“Why should I？It only has 40，000 miles on it.”
帕里斯·希尔顿多次想把她的旧车卖出去。她很难找到一个买家，因为车的计程器已经显示有34万英里。她向妮可·里奇求救。妮可·里奇说：“这辆车可以有办法卖出去，但那是非法的。”
“这不要紧，”帕里斯·希尔顿答道。“我能把这辆车卖出去，这才是最重要的。”
“好吧，”妮可答道。她小声告诉帕里斯：“这是我一个朋友的地址，他在附近有个汽车修理店。告诉他是我把你介绍来的，他能把你的计程器调回4万英里。这样再卖车，就不会有问题了。”
第二周，帕里斯·希尔顿在妮可的建议下，来到了这个洗车修理店。
大约一个月后，两人又见面了，妮可问：“你的车卖出去了吗？”
“没有！”帕里斯·希尔顿答道，“我为什么要卖？它只跑了4万英里！”
