Our new Family car
While ago I mentioned about having some cash to spare for a car ..
Well finally we decided that me getting a new Scooby wasn't piratical ..
Anyway .. we bought this ..
This colour too .. its the exclusive model which means it has all the bell and whistles .. I still use my Scooby day to day but I have to admit its a nice car to drive !!

I don't know if you've seen the March edition of Evo yet but Chris Harris has written a piece along the very lines of this new phenomenon. He is arguing "that the Skoda Yeti is perfect for 'new evo' man" He goes on to say:
"Back when evo was born the average Billy like you and me would have something like an Impreza Turbo which would do the lot: fast road work, family clutter, the occasional track day.
But the world has changed. Many road-hedonists now see little point in having £40k tied-up in 400bhp... People I know are now splitting the pile in two: something inoffensive and cost-effective for the road and a brain-out special for circuits and annoying the wife."
He calls the former the Yeti Factor
I loved the article as I'm considering a Yeti at the moment to run alongside the Scoob (to be replaced with a Mini Cooper S or Abarth Fiat 500 in the future)(well, this week anyway ) and it just struck me how true this new Yeti Factor thing is.
It is without doubt a sign of the times and I'm not sure if it's a good thing or not...

If you sliced my overdraft in half....
It says Scooby through the middle.
And always will, but I fancy an Ev* to tinker with.....
dunx
P.S. Nice mini-bus....

Come on people - a bit harsh!
They are well rated, it's a decent colour and good spec.
We had a Zafira in SW Ireland (I had booked a half decent estate car) and was mortified. But a week of driving and using it revealed that it was actually very useful, very practical and I quite seeing over everything.
