Not THAT young Happy birthday for the other day BTW

Funny thing is back in October you'd ordered a black one, but you've now got a white one. Seems the dealer has given you the wrong car

no matter how it drives it will always be ugly to me and gone the days where subaru's get noticed this one will just blend in with all the other family hatches out there.

I LIKED THE CLIO CLUB sexy and more in my price range

You certainly changed your views regarding colour

Good decision btw
