I've put the fun back into driving.

Finally picked up my new (to me) car last Friday.

I've not stopped grinning since.
driving has become fun once again

Re: I've put the fun back into driving.

It is so lovely when you get a new car isn't it Tpin.

I also got a new to me car about two months ago. Its makes driving so much nicer. I can now listen to the travel bulletins it flashes up when I am approaching traffic cams which always helps and it has satnav. Its a Nissan Note and don't know why it took me so long to buy it.

Re: I've put the fun back into driving.

It is nice, I agree.

I have a lease car but its a sensible car and not mine.

I've spent nearly 18 months lookibg for one of these (RX8 Kuro ) and had just about given up when I found this one by accident.

I now find myself looking for excuses to drive it

Hi

Great to see you posting again Tpin.

Enjoy the car.

Re: I've put the fun back into driving.

Thanks SF.

Been busy with the complications life sometimes throws our way.

Re: I've put the fun back into driving.

What is it Tpin , they all look the same to me except for the colour

It looks a bit like my son's Audi which he loves and I hate because it is difficult to get in and out of and when I am in I can't reach the door to shut it

Being driven in it makes my knuckles go white too (with clinging to the seat).

Re: I've put the fun back into driving.

Don't worry Meg, I am sure that Tpin will drive at no more that 30 mph and I am certain he will come round to open and close the door for you, when he takes you for a drive .

Re: I've put the fun back into driving.

It's a Mazda RX-8 Kuro.
They only made 500 Kuro models....worldwide, so a good onecis hard to find especially one without the common faults known to the RX-8.

Enjoy it Tpin don't drive to fast

Re: I've put the fun back into driving.

I'm sure I'll be sensible.

Whilst it appears to be a two door sports coupe its actually a four door.
