Is my sentence 我本来要带你去的，但是我的车抛锚了 correct?
Since the second sentence includes 从那儿 and 打车回来 (come back), I would assume the two speakers are in the place they want to come back to, therefore the first person (A) is not 带 &quot;taking&quot; the second person (B) anywhere. She's going to pick her up.

I think the main sentence sounds better with 准备, or 想, instead of 要, as it introduces an intent (then disrupted by the car breaking down), instead of a sure thing.



我本来准备去接你，但是我的车抛锚了。
I was going to pick you up, but my car broke down.
