New Car!

Yay!
I’ve bought myself a Nissan Almera Ambition 1.4
Finally, I have my own set of wheels. Only four weeks after passing my test, so it’s not a bad time frame.
The car, red in colour, came from my mams friends husband, who’s a mechanic, so that’s great stuff and the asking price was only £800.
Considering the condition of the vehicle, pretty damn good; the new brake calipers; the new exhaust; the general look of the car; the smooth running; the central locking and alarm; the cd player; and a set of (four, five’s a proper set though) alloys thrown in after a little inquiry it was a bargain.
It’s a nice car to run me about places I need to be. I doubt I’ll be doing any work to it, or adding anything on as I haven’t got a clue what to do, so for now it’s looking good.
I’ll have to decide when to put the alloys on. I was going to let it sit for a while without them and see what attention it gets, as alloys may attract un-wanted idiots.
I shall see about getting some photo’s up some time, most likely won’t be for a while as I only have my phone camera. I also don’t want to look an idiot taking pictures.
Trying to set up the insurance on Monday was extremely stressful, and I was on the verge of not buying the car due to the trim (Ambition) bumping the premium up another £200. A standard model would have only set me back £745, I payed £942 for .. well, I don’t know really. Most likely it’s a boy-racer car. Tits!
All taxed and tested until March/April next year, irrespectively (swap the months for t&t).
I’ll need to get a petrol points card now, save up to get money off shopping.
Was planing on taking her out tonight, but I’m tired.
She needs a name too. I need my furry die!!!
