Toot toot!
So today, after much stressing and an extreme case of the shakes ... I only blimmin' well passed my driving test!!
Delighted, over the moon, elated, flabbergasted, thrilled, overjoyed ... none of this covers how exactly I am feeling.
I was convinced I had failed my test, I had made so many silly mistakes that never seem to happen on my lessons, so when the examiner announced this would be the last driving test I would ever sit - I burst into tears!!
Ugh, how cringeworthy ... especially since the tears were followed by me screaming and much jumping around in the drivers seat with excitement.
Anyway, I am a bit restless now and I'm not quite sure what to do with myself so I thought I would google cars!! I love retro/vintage cars and in an ideal world I would only ever drive them (albeit a pimped up version with power steering, ABS, electric windows etc ... not that i'm fussy!!) but they can be a little too expensive and hard to come by. Luckily I already have a car waiting for me, a racing green soft top MX-5 ... Just need to get the insurance sorted and I should be good to go by next week :)
So here is my idea of car candy ...
Alpha Romeo Spider |
The original Fiat 500 |
BMW Roadster |
VW Beetle |
Not an actual photo of my car but this is basically it - Mazda MX-5 |
Instead of lusting after brand new car models, I really do love the vintage styles and retro shapes.
To be honest, I would drive anything, I am just so darn chuffed to actually have a license now!!
What's your idea of car candy??

Congratulations on passing!
ReplyDeleteOne day I'd love an E-Type Jaguar. Now that is a car :D
Congrats again!! I love my car but it's probably your idea of hell. Ideally I'd quite like a Range Rover Sport though I'm not sure... I'd need something to hold lots of shopping bags and clutter
