NEW CAR!

Picking it up ws a headache; the previous customer was late, then the invoice was wrong (I'd like to have paid £400 less, but not if it's going to need a warranty claim in 5 months & not be covered), then the checks on payment added another 15 minutes.

But despite all that, it's now mine and I love it. Will probably need a new exhaust in the next year, but given its age that's to be expected. Now I'm either going to lose my licence by the end of the year, or become the safest driver ever; it's so much more powerful than the 323 (and even the Astra).

And it's Biblically red :) Outrageously, enormously, excessively, extravagantly, colossally red.

What car did you get?

And what engine was your 323?

I did have one of these. Now I have one of these (but without the spoiler to spoil the looks) :) It's amazing what an extra 200cc can do :)

Yay!

I assume your photos for this week will feature a certain biblically red vehicle? ;o)

Oh, and watch your letterbox...

It's only red because it thinks it's a Ferrari. (Don't tell it it's a Celica, you'll destroy the poor ickle thing's confidence.)

Oh and YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! *bounce bounce*

It's perfectly happy to be a Celica. They're gorgeous things :)
