Time to change

Car.

The little red lightning now need more money thrown at it in order to pass inspection than it is worth, so i will have to go new car browsing tomorrow.

Been looking online, and it seem like there might be a chance i will get my first French car.

One of my favorite things to do - looking at new cars. 🙂

I like it too, though pretty much only when i have choice, here i am severely hampered by a small saving and the fact i am on a pension.
TBH i am not even sure if anyone will want to lend me the 50% i can not pay cash, if that is the case, i am wrapped in a incline plane around a axis.

New car zeroed out, will pick it up next week.
Awaiting good weather so i can uninstall Dashcam stuff from the little red lightning.
Red car included in sale, that be for its scrap value which is 2000 Dkkr / 310 USD ( yes Danes get paid for scrapping their car, though i would assume there have always been a scrap iron value )

New car,,,,, by chance,,,, i swear 😇 also have good install geometry / windscreen layout.
Rear window also have a wiper as it is also a small 5 door hatchback

Another thing,,,,, AC not that i have missed it terrible much, and i will gain a whopping 13 BHP to play with.

20000 km on the clock / 12427 miles, so barely run in, first registered 2022

Wow - very low miles indeed. My wife and I both bought the vehicles we are now driving, used,
about 2 years old and right at 20,000 miles each. Hers is 2011, mine is 2014. Both have
been trouble free, just investing in upkeep and maintenance.

Hers is now a little over 37k miles, mine is just below 125k miles. Here's hoping you have
good luck with yours!

Just stripped dashcams and power pack + wires and fuse adapters out of the old car today, just got a couple of harder to get at 12 V tabs done on wires behind the center console so that will have to wait until Sunday.
My previous 2 cars have been new, the 2006 Gran vitara from Suzuki, and then the 2012 Suzuki splash i have been driving since then.

The new car is a French Citroen C3, so O la la 😀 My first French car.

1.2 L and a whopping 83 BHP and 5 on a stick.
added bonus it have AC too, though with that on the power is probably down to 70 BHP 😆

I am so old i can say that i have tried to drive the 2CV
And today if anyone should get into a 2CV, the first thing they will say is " where is the stick " and after that " that’s the stick,,,,, okay let me out of here "
Even if we factor in the person is a European accustomed to driving a stick.
