Lovely day new car
« on: January 06, 2012, 08:49:51 PM »
Just before Christmas, Jeanna went to our local friendly Abarth dealer for a £13 oil filter so I could change the oil. 3 weeks and a few £1000's later we have a new car to replace our, just under two and a half year old Abarth.

When we pick up a new car we usually head for the coast, and we have just come back from Scarborough. A nice ride there, fish and chips and a run back over the hills.

Good start to a new year.

I'm glad I'm no longer a moderator - I'd have to buy a red car!  ;)

Looks great Martin! Why the swap?

We just missed you today Lloyd, you must have seen it parked outside.

Jeanna just loved the colour combination so much, kept thinking about it and went for it.

It looks very nice, red is the new white as Lloyd said they just turn up! It is raining red. What did you do with the oil filter?  :whistle:
