2rd October - View challenge week and a new car for us!!

Excited,com here! Our new car arrived on Monday and we said farewell to our old car. We had the salesman put the car in our garage as we couldn't drive it until the new tax started on 1st Oct!! I  had to take Xanthe to playgroup for 9am through work and school traffic and we have gone from a manual gears to automatic, we love it!!
Today we had a day out taking turns to drive it and reading the manual and stopping to find different things we had read about in the manual. We also did some shopping and had a late lunch at Eastbourne marina sitting outside in glorious sunshine, though the temp was only 18C
Here is a collage of the new car, old car and Xanthe in the new car going to playgroup!

As we left these baby seagulls flew in for our left overs!!

  3. Congratulations on your new car! Very nice color and pattern!
    Peter looks hungry - hungry man is a terror to the beasts in the forest, but luckily for them, you are at the port! / This is a joke. /
    The photos with the bird / Glarus? / are very interesting and beautiful! LOL
    I wonder why the plate has been left full of food ..

  4. Nice car. I like the color. I don't believe we can buy those here in the US. Getting a new car is always so exciting.

  8. Your car looks great! We have one automatic car and a gear shift one. I like driving both, but in heavy traffic the automatic wins every time!
