Since I was moved to the big smoke, I couldn't use my car anymore :( this didn't make me happy! However since I have been off, I've noticed and realised how much I missed the car. Having to rely on lifts and public transport was just a nightmare! So I decided we needed another car, especially when baby comes and hubby using the car daily well it means that when time comes or if any emergencies arise I need some form of transport just in case.
After a couple of weeks searching for a little run around for us. And extortionate insurance quotes. We finally found 'Simon' perfect for hubby to use to and from work & FWD for the snow, and the insurance was reasonable especially after the quotes we were getting.
I must have looked at over 1000 cars & called about 500 people! I kid you not. Some cars were just horrid, some too high mileage, or even held together by Sellotape (I kid you not). Then Tuesday I stumbled across Simon. A Saxo VTR 1.6, X Plate (2000 model), alloys, sports exhaust, with only 51,000 (warranted mileage) for a steal :)) clearly I wasn't holding my hopes on it still being available. So I got hubby to call. Simon had not been snapped up yet. So arranged a viewing :)) so we arrived Simon was at the back of the showroom. I was imagining the pictured had prolly don't him justice and that he certainly wouldn't be a lush as the photos! I was wrong. 1 hour & 35 minutes later, he was coming to his brand new home :) deal had been done. Hubby even got an extra £50 off the asking price :)) so here he is.
Say hello to Simon x
Simon slept in a warm garage last night, tucked up safe and a true member of the family. :) hubby loves him (boy racer at heart) he is nippy and new to us! 💙🚘 x
This is the last big purchase now before Christmas shopping commences x
