Against the grain....

Well, after much deliberation and discussion Dave and I have finally done something we never thought we would.... we've bought a brand new car. (well, actually the bank has!). I've just gotten so stressed out lately with the cost of all the repairs to our old cars and we heard about a really good deal through some work colleagues. I don't really believe in taking loans for material things, but after some calculations it seems like the new car is wise. It's a very small car and not exactly top of the range, but it does have a warenty for 3 years, should be reliable and should be cheap on fuel (we're at 85p a litre on petrol here just now - a slight improvement on almost 1 pound ($2) a litre before Christmas!!). It doesn't arrive until March, so we have time to try to sell our old car for a few quid. It's called a renault clio campus ad will be very small by US standards!

It looks like this:
