Mission Complete!

[ace]

Just got back from picking up our car!

Left at 6.15 this morning, got 7.00 mega bus from Winchester to Manchester, then 12.25 train to Bolton, changed trains to Southport, walked 1/2 hour to garage(as it was a nice day and i am 2 tight to pay for a taxi!) Then parted with alot of money and drove home via a couple of toilet breaks.

Car is very different to the 182 we had but is amazing drive! Well pleased and was surprised at how little fuel it used (although i was driving 60-70) at this rate will be over 400 miles for the tank?

When we got near home went off the m-way and went down some nice back roads

Fit for bed now, will get some pics up at some point 2mo when car is clean...
