I like the look of it. A lot! It's a beauty!
And it reminds me of previous car, that I had until November, a Hyundai Tuscon.

I drive roughly 12 000 miles a year. A far way from 90 000. Maybe you misread it as 120 000 in that FB post? Or maybe I accidentally slipped in an additional zero?


Anyway, I just bought a new car last November. A Toyota Auris Hybrid. I'm very happy with it. It's smaller than my previous Hyundai, which gives me the possibility to rent a lot in the parking garage across my workplace, which I did. I've had the parking spot for three days so far and I love it!
And I totally love the hybrid. It really saves me quite some gas. Katherine is right, gas is expensive in Europe. Currently 5,62$ per gallon.

Here's my new drive:

Well, now I'm more confused than ever!  :laugh:  Maybe because you left a space, I think, where here we would use a comma. But anyway, my car is 10 years old and has 90,000 miles on the odometer, meaning it has been driven just under 10,000 miles a year. I think the average here might be 15,000.

Last time I looked, gas here was about $2.20 a gallon.


Front-Ranger:
90,000 miles in a year would be nearly 250 miles a day!!  :o

Hiya BetterMost friends.





Weekends pass too quickly!!!!

Today was a little busy, but things seemed to fall into place, and I was able to leave on time.

I took some of the stuff to the office for the birthday lunch tomorrow, the plates, some spreads, chips and rolls.  Tomorrow I'll be getting the cold cuts on the way to work.   I'm also going to buy some cookies to take to bowling.
