New Car

We finally found a new car today. We've been looking for weeks so it's nice to have settled on one. It's a Toyota Hilux Surf, a japanese import 4 wheel drive. It's maroon. It has room in the back for the dogs and has big suspension so it sits up quite high (I'm not sure "big suspension" is how you're meant to describe it, but it'll do! Perhaps "high suspension" would be more accurate).

So it's goodbye to the Skyline, which has served us well. I'll miss it, but it's going to our brother in law so we'll see it around.

We spent all day today driving around western Sydney test driving cars and looking in dealers yards. The weather was pretty gross, very windy, and I'm glad I'm not working this week as the trains were all stuffed up this afternoon because of it.

The new car has a big thick aerial right in the middle front of the bonnet. It looks a bit tough. Adam is going to pick it up tomorrow.
