    @66Mustang ... the car sounds like a dream  :)

    33 mpg isn't bad ... at least you don't need a tanker following you around on a decent journey.

    I'm still in love with cars, I'm from a family heavily into rallying and mending/fixing any problem on any car ... but have fallen out of love with driving.  Mainly due to my body not being up to it any more.  It's more a chore now.  Finding myself thinking more and more ... he's doing 57 ... do I want to overtake ... 

    As for cars coming a long way in 20 years - my daughter learned to drive in an 1.1 litre Twingo on an 08 plate - was as flat as a pancake ...  now you've got 3 cylinder 1100's as fast as an old 1600.  The power of the turbo

    Yours must push you back in the seat when the twin turbo kicks in  :)

    Oh it was well worth the wait for the photos it’s a beauty off a car.
    Enjoy all the adventures it’ll bring you. 

    I’m so glad you’re having a lovely time enjoying your new car. 

    ❤️

    @WelshBlue yeah I can understand about your body not being up to it putting you off, must be no fun when you are in pain, I am restricted a bit by my psychological issues but luckily they are mostly on the motorway which is a chore anyway, the issues don't occur so much the fun roads.

    @Lou67 thank you very much for the kind words, really appreciate it :)

    Just received my replacement key ring to go with the car after the first one had a piece missing.

    Such a nice car @66Mustang inside and out and I'm glad you got a replacement key ring.

    Thanks @C_J I got to keep the key ring with the bit missing as well so have a spare if mine breaks or gets worn, just need to swap over the bit that was missing.

    Nice recaro style ... love the stitching and fabric.  Funny how seats can make or break a car.

    Have you tried it with TC turned off yet  >:)

    Me falling out of love with driving, is in part because of pain and not being the driver I was, but more other drivers.

    Where I live it's only A roads for 50/60 miles in any direction.  People drive hours to use the roads.  Especially bikers.  The pilots you can tell can handle a car, fast but not reckless no problem.  I'm just seeing too many near escapes where it's literally 2 seconds from disaster on a corner, or the 40mph braking into every corner with a queue of 15 cars behind them (every right to do so ... but pull over !)
    Slow speed can be just as dangerous as high ?

    I think my Psychologist is right ... I'm turning into a grumpy old man

    @welshblue

    I am usually quite philosophical on the roads…if someone pulls out in front of me I just brake, what’s the point in using the horn etc. but what you mention does slightly irk me…

    Where I live there are mostly 60mph B roads broken up by 30mph villages. We have a lot of a type of driver here which I like to call “Mr/Mrs Average”. This is because they do 40mph on the 60 roads, but when they get to a village and the limit drops to 30 they still proceed at 40mph!
