i've got a new car! woohoo!
finally got rid of the toyota avalon with the foot operated suicide device (park brake) where the clutch pedal should be, and got a new subaru impreza with a clutch pedal where a clutch pedal belongs.
only now i've got to run it in, no going over 4000rpm for 1600 kilometres. and no sitting on the same speed/rpm for long periods of time during this period either. so it looks like during lunch and after work for a week or so that i'll be going for a hoot up and down the mountain, well a slow hoot anyway.
oh well, i was impressed, the kids were impressed. now to see if the surfboards will fit :-)
