Hopefully Ron, just realised if the car arrives at the dealers on 24/11 the MOT and service is due on the trade in on the 29/11

It's finally arrived
Delivery times were all over the shop from being told January 2024 to then June 2024 and then suddenly was due to arrive 24th November just gone, then 29th November and then 5th December
Was starting to think it had been lost. Suddenly then turned up last week so collected today just in time for Christmas.
Initial impressions are good, so many driving parameters it's mind boggling, alot to learn. Chassis is super stiff so will be looking forward to stretching it's legs.
Not a great day to pick up weather wise, every tree and wheelie bin
but incident free.

made me laugh,
Can't remember what I had at 18, think it was a bus ticket
first car at 19 was a 1979 Toyota Starlet 1.2 in Kermit Green
for the princely sum of £2400
felt I'd gone up in the world.

You must have been a late starter!
At 18 I got a twin-cam Fiat 125 for about £400 after a year of misery in a 1967 MK2 Cortina banger.

Passed my test at 17 and used my dad's car at the time which was a Toyota Carina, my brother had a Toyota Celica ST, wasn't jealous at all

Real shame production has just stopped, think its end of the line for this particular model. I imagine whatever next comes along next will be a Hybrid non manual
