RE: Excited!!

Beautiful colour choice, Jacquie! I was forced (kicking and screaming!) to an automatic for the first time, due to a spinal injury, but 5 years on, I have never looked back to a manual once! You'll LOVE it! Don't forget to post piccies when you get it! Very Happy Paula.

Thanks Paula. I'm going to practice in an open space first!! Like your Yorkie pic. I have a 6 month yorkie puppy who I am sure will enjoy trips out sitting in the passenger seat!! Lol. I will put some car pics on when I get it and figure out how to upload them.

RE: Excited!!

Aww, fab! It's like driving a dodgem (point and shoot), no clutch or gearstick to think about, ..to be honest thought I would hate it, but wouldn't go back to a manual now, lol. I LOVE Yorkies, had 3 of them when I was growing up. Such amazing little dogs for sure. The little guy to the left is Mikey, a Lhasa Apso, but I suppose he does look kind of Yorkie-like in that pic Laughing. Register on Photobucket.com and upload your photos to your account, then copy the direct link to each pic and paste it into the little pop up window that comes up after you click on the small square photo icon (it shows when posting a reply or a new thread). Look forward to seeing your new car AND your puppy! Very Happy Paula.

RE: Excited!!

Enjoy your new car Jacquie, If you are worried about an automatic, just tuck your left "clutch" foot under the seat so you don't try and press the brake with it! Pics would be great if you can!

Thanks for the advice that really helps. I picked up the car this morning, can't believe how easy it is to drive although a bit unnerving when I come to a roundabout and feel like I've just gone round it in 4th gear!! Love the car it's gorgeous. I will put some pics on when I can take some in the sunshine - rained not stop here today!!
