New motor
My new car finally arrived. I went to pick it up on Tuesday. The old one, at 6 years 3 months, had done 45,044 miles when I handed it over. The new one had done 13. Considering the £200 a year difference in VED, I'm a bit miffed they wanted to get it into November's sales figures, but they gave me a free boot liner, so not too bad. At least having the tax due at the beginning of November means it's not quite in the middle of Christmas shopping.
I booked it in to have dash cams fitted on Wednesday. It's handy that Halfords is right across the road from the office, as I had several meetings during the day and could just nip out to pick it up. All I need to do now is transfer all the bits & pieces from the old car, like the electric pump, cold weather kit, pen, tissues and furry dice and then take it out for a bit of a run. I'm sure we'll be very happy together for the next 3 years or so.
I'd put a photo in, but it's so long since I've done it, I can't work out how to link to link to google photos.
