im getting......

Postby pollR78 » 25 Sep 2013, 16:43

a new car tomorrow!! (well not brand new but new to me!)

the mileage on my car is really high, and its quite expensive for fuel, road tax etc and had said to myself I would look after December - then my exhaust started making a loud noise (sound like a boy racer when i start it up lol), my dad looked at it and said its ok at the moment but I would want to get it fixed soon especially driving to Blackpool in a few weeks..........

...well on Saturday went to a garage for a look with Amy and my folks, done some number crunching and got the go ahead yesterday, was meant to collect it tonight but when they were getting it ready they realised it needed new brakes and tyres, and the parts wouldnt be there in time, so going to get it tomorrow after 4!

Its a hyundai i10, its so nice, i actually love it, its black and very cute! Cheap to run, and very cheap road tax ;)

woohoo!! :D :D :D am keeping it quiet though until I actually have it but I can tell you guys ;)

oh have you Gal :) aren't they cute!!

I couldn't believe how nice it was when I got in it and drove it, its black and very cute, Amy is going to think of a name for it!

Our current car is called Sylvia (shes silver) and she has been a great car but time to upgrade :)

SO excited!!!! I was scared to get my hopes up as I haven't had any finance/credit for a long time with being a student so was very nervous!!

Very!! I like the ergonomic gearstick for a start, and they are a lovely little drive 8-) You might need to use the back seat for your grocery shopping as well as the boot, as it's titchy, but that's not a bad thing :) I called mine Izzy - I for i10 ;)

yeah I noticed the boot was quite small but to be honest I think it will be ok, as we never normally have that many shopping bags ;)

Oh I like Izzy, will say that to Amy, although think she wants something to begin with B (for black), I suggested Berty, or Betty! lol!

My old car was called cricket - as it was Jimny (as in Jimminy cricket - yes. I know I'm weird :lol:

We have a tree called Bert (lemon) another is called Ollie (after Oliver - but we're not allowed to all him Ollie :lol: ) another called lennie (it's a lime) and I ran out of dafty names then, for the orange and other lemon trees :oops: :lol:
