Went car shopping today...........
« on: 26 April 2014, 20:27:02 »

To be honest we went to Darlington to buy a really low Mileage Citroen......... :-X :-X However, such is our luck the car was sold........ :'( :'(

What a turn up for the books after trailing around, Miss Vamps kept pointing at the Insignia, we ended up in a dealership, a make that had never even crossed my mind and bought this.............. :y :y :y

Well........ ::) ::) 

It was my full intention to buy a 'sit up and beg' and walked away from an Insignia because I struggled to get out of it; with hindsight I may not have given it a fair chance..... :-\ :-\

The seat hight of the Honda is quite high, I tried many entrance / exits and all seemed fine, the toys, gadgets and the test drive won, it drives fantastically for my style of driving; nippy rather than flat out. Will need help from Miss Vamps to help me with some of the toys, and I have never used a sat nav......... :D :D :D
