Shiny things

RIP Stoopid Little Car(tm)

Adam finally nagged me into it, and we both agreed that we are sick of the sight of the Stoopid Little Car ™ which has been my trusty companion for eight and a half years.
Farewell to the PornStar Sticker, and farewell to the fact that I can never remember to put the alloy back on when i bust a wheel, so i trundle round with three shiny wheels and a steely for months on end.
Farewell to the grinding weird noise which i suffered for 2000 miles. Although to be fair it turned out that it was a) the bearings on both rear wheels and potentially could have caused wheel falling off ness and b) yes, I have had it fixed.
Farewell to the constant kicks in the back by anyone who’s in the back seat and hasnt enough legroom – like i care very much ( Not at all ).

We’ve have 8 years and 70 thousand miles together, many trips round scotland and places, packed to the rafters. and now its off to the glue factory [ dealership ] for this little beastie.
I havent told it yet, that I’m spending my time with details of the new model. That A week on friday i’ll be handing over the keys and taking away a shiny shiny Ford Fiesta Titanium in its place.
words cannot express the shininess and fun-ness of the new car.

I better hope I enjoy it, as I’ll be paying for it for a couple years. Sitting in it and making vroom noises owning to the cost of petrol.

Clio. 2002-2011. RIP.
