I Have Been Tango'ed!

Fancied a change of colour on the wheels as they have been gold for over two years! Really struggled with what colour to go for, but I decided to make my car stand out more than it did anyway and got them refurbed in Florescent Orange! Cant stand out much more than this now!


Cant lose me in a car park now!

New Shoes Pt 2

I was toying with the idea of another set of wheels for ages, but there was only one set I would only really settle for, and it was a set of Advan SA3r's. I had been searching the net for months trying to find a set to no avail. Thne one night I came across a set! I was so excited, they had only just been put up for sale on the Yaris Owners Club UK. They were a set of 15" x 6.5" refurbished in Blue wrapped in Toyo T1Rs. Didnt even try and haggle with the guy, I wanted them that badly, I thought they would look perfect on my quirky little car and perfect for sprinting with!

Really notice a different in handling and accelaration speeds compared to the heavy day to day Rota Grids, but the downside is the car is alot lower on these, it hates speedbumps and you can forget about going into Brighton multistorey car park!

Limited Edition Gift

The first 100 people to place an order for an IQ received a paperweight in the post from Toyota. I actually missed out but someone was selling their IQ so I bought their paperweight from them for £20! Really pleased with it, its a great little keepsake!

Grand Arrival

Meet my Toyota IQ. I went for the top spec IQ2 which has the normal IQ spec plus the following...

Climate Control / Air Conditioning
Smart Entry/Smart Start
Rain sensing wipers
LED brake light
Dusk sensing headlights
Electrically retractable and adjustable, heated door mirrors
Chrome rear light clusters
Electro-chromatic rear view mirror
High gloss 15" alloy wheels
Darkened bi-halogen headlamps

I also got the optional extra iSports pack which is rear skirt/valance, a roof spoiler and chrome exhaust pipe.

We got to Toyota and I could see my shiny new car waiting on the forecourt! This was my first ever brand new car, so it was a very new and exciting experience for me. I was greeted by Bryan who proceeded to show me al the features, like the auto headlights and windscreen wipers, and just the general controls.

When we were just going over the last little pieces of paperwork, one of the sales guys ran out holding something and said 'dont forget to give her this!' He then handed me an IQ branded Rubix Cube! So cute!

I was then allowed to take my first spin in my new prized possession! Been out in it for a couple of hours today and got around 59mpg on a mix of roads, and the road tax is free. So much fun and already getting some puzzled looks by people who dont have a clue what it is!
