Impulse Buying

[JPaul]

I impulse purchased a new car on Monday. When I say new I mean out of the wrapper, brand new.

Went in to price a service on me current car, asked the chap what he would give me on mine as a trade in. Asked if there were any offers on the go and got a deal I fancied.

To be honest I didn't sign the order till Tuesday, but the deal was already done in principal on the Monday evening.

I'm on medication for my impulse's

Jeez Sara.

I applaud your impulsiveness.
Also your luck.

Imagine the odds of being present when the Time Warp opened and a 40 year old bike drops out.

Astronomical, I'd wager.

Its a 1978 bike actually......not quite 40 years old yet.

@ J2k4....no silly, they don't make em like they used to which is why I bought it!

@ JPaul...Bloody hell, I thought I was impulsive but you beat me....soooooo what ya bought then?

@ Busyman.....:raspberry: Some people have no taste and it aint me

I'm not knocking your buy though even if it's an ugly one.

I mean you can't beat that. That bike was a steal at 10 pounds.

....well....now that I think of it....you might have overpaid...just a tad.

Come on, you got an american guy and a french guy to agree. Face it, your bike's ugly.

Clio Extreme 4



RHD obviousement.

We've got the big car so I like a wee (cheap to run) one for going to work and nicking about in.

I got the metallic black, with CD

i'm surprised it wasn't Extreme spelt with 'X'

are you considering putting a big spoiler on that, some chrome hubs perhaps, and some nice neon lights under it?

No, but number 2 son (17), currently taking lessons, is considering it.

If he wants to pay for it he can do what he wants.

Sorry, but I knew that; even the year...

Got a speeding ticket on it, too; couldn't believe it, either-the copper wheeled up right behind me, lights out, after dark, then let everything go at once-fuckin' near blew me off the road.

Unlike my uncouth American counterpart, Busyman, I'll go so far as to say that, while the bike is of a somewhat indeterminate aesthetic value, I'm quite sure it will look splendid with you aboard, Sara.

Happy mileage-making, and if that man gets jealous, toss him the keys and tell him to fetch some milk for the children, double-quick.
