True, we don't often hear mention of something like a "fireball" spell, but I
would think that if Avada Kedavra (or whatever Pettigrew used) can blow up a
street, it could do a number on a car.

Reminds me of one of the scenes in another young adult fantasy, "So You Want to
be a Wizard", involving an intelligent Viper taking on the nemesis in that
story. (I haven't read the sequels, but I thought that first book wasn't bad.
But I'm a sucker for "sympathy for the Devil" stories.)

Funny thing about the Anglia, though: it never seemed to have personality
*before* the accident. I wonder if it was a side-effect of Ron's wand snapping
during the crash?

negotiate with it to go get it to open its doors every time she needed to take a
trip.)
