Having learned that the car had been delivered to the dealership, we took a chance that it would at least be visible, if we took a drive down there – even though the place was closed. As luck would have it, Dan, the Sales Executive who’s looking after the deal, was just locking-up, and offered us a view.
They’re probably the poorest quality photos I’ve ever taken, but it was getting dark, and I didn’t want to use the flash in case the light bounced off the car-body – so they’re both a bit fuzzy – but this is literally what the car looked like straight off the transporter – grubby, covered in stickers and various protective bits, minus the personalised plate and the sport’s grille – and obviously screaming out for a good clean – those ‘bad-boy 20” inch alloys look great though and are a real head-turner! (Note to self: Write to Kettering Council and ask them to sort out all the pot-holes round here!)
I got into blogging quite late in life, not publishing my first post until 2004 – well into my 40s! My lifelong love of technology and communication (in all its forms), together with a fondness for the art of writing seemed to be the perfect combination to contribute a few words to the online community. But I’m no Samuel Pepys! If you’re looking for deep and meaningful comments on a variety of subjects, then you’ve arrived at the wrong site! I only pen for pleasure! On average, my posts appear about twice per month, covering family & friends, cinema visits, eating out, holiday experiences and techy stuff. Oh, and as this is my hobby, there are no sponsored links nor adverts here – it’s all done with love!
I hope you find it enjoyable, interesting and occasionally, even helpful!
