For those of you who don't know we have sold my Ford Focus and in its place gotten a Renault Clio as well as a Yaris. The Clio is for Rob and run back and forth to the airport with and as a 2nd car here in CT, whilst the Yaris will go up to Jhb. Rob does minimal mileage in Jhb as well so doesn't need anything fancy there - so he says (personally think he's saving for a Porsche - yes Brian, the next photo will be of me driving our own Porsche - SIGHHHHH!!!!!)
It is cheaper to run the Clio (including parking costs at the airport) than it is to have a shuttle service pick him up twice a week.
Now if you follow my blog you will remember I mentioned Rob polishing the cars, well whilst he was doing that he discovered the Yaris had been in an accident (replaced front headlight) and on further inspection found the one side of the car was totally repaired.
The dealer we bought it from have been fantastic (I suppose because Rob has an email that states the car is accident free) - and bottom line are replacing it with a similar car, but instead of the blue, it will now be white.
Hopefully it arrives on Friday, in time for Rob to drive it to Jhb on Sunday.
But on top of that the Volvo has been making a lot of noise when you drive at high speed and we finally took it to Volvo today to be told the wheel bearings need to be replaced - thank goodness for the maintenance plan, so in the car goes on Thursday.
