    у меня нет....

    У меня нет новой машины.

    Does it mean that I have a car, but it isn't NEW?
    Or does it mean total absence?
    Or both depending on context?
    Please correct my Russian or English. Спасибо большое!

    Both depending on context.
    I've got a TV, and I'm not afraid to use it

    it seems like the question would be: do you have a new car? i mean if you had no car, why would you bother to add new
