A Skoda Felicia

Not a lot has been happening.

I changed my car sooner than expected.

My father had got a Skoda Felicia 1.3 for my sister, but she did not like the size of it.

The Skoda Felicia is about the size of a VW Golf and from a distance looks like one.

She had always driven a mini (the original) until her current car which is a Rover 100. She does not like to drive a larger car.

Since her axcident when a driver drove through a crossroad and wrecked her last mini, she has never liked driving.

If she had a choice, she would never drive again.

So I ended up with it and she now has a VW Polo, which is about the same size, maybe a little narrower than her current Rover 100.

A few years ago when I went up one level of car insurance, it cost me an extra �100 for the remaining 10 months. I have droped five levels and I am saving a whole �2.60 on the remaining 9 months. "I have been rip off by my insurance" springs to mind.

Go up 1 level add �100.00
Go down 5 levels subtract �2.60

At lest the road tax has droped from �165 down to �110 for the year.

The car has made certain that it will be several years before I can go back to Japan.

I have to pay my father for the car.

The car dealer was doing a two days special offers and the Skoda Felicia was reduced by 45 %. It is a 1999 model and does about 44 miles (71 kilometers) to the gallon (UK gallon = 1.25 US gallon = 4.6 liters). About the same as my Citreon ZX 1.9 Diesel.
