I have a new car!!!!!!

And it is RED!! It is also tiny, it feels as if I should be able to put it in my pocket, so I hope the dreadful parking in Leeds might get a little better from now on.

My little Peugeot 107:
(the car in the picture is not actully mine, but it looks similar) :



In more news, RL always takes off during the school holiday time. My daughter and I have been doing all things possible together, starting from beading, biking and car-shopping and ending with the re-watch of "Boys Before Flowers".

PS: any suggestions on how to name it are very welcome. Every car needs a name but I haven't found one yet.

I love Smart cars, but a two-seater is totally not acceptable for me. I occasionally have more than one passenger and I can not keep this option. Do you mean you don't get many Smart cars?

Strawberry (or Sally ) might be her name. :D

A two-seater is fine for me, especially if it saves me gas money :D

The US only recently imported Smart cars. You see them around sometimes, but they're ridiculously expensive for their size. Larger cars are cheaper!

Oh, I like Sally too!

We have been having Smart cars for quite a while, you never see too many, though. Mostly because the two-seater ones are too expensive for what they are. Yes, they are great if you want to save on petrol but the new crop of minis (lie Citroen C1, Fiat 500, Toyota Aigo and Peugeot 107) are very good if you want to save money on petrol (and think about the environment). There are Smarts with 4 doors too, but I think they are quite ugly.
