“Pegasus” – 15/Jan/08

I crashed poor Lance in a nasty high speed collision. I was driving down a duel-carriageway, came round the corner and saw the road was blocked with cars from a previous accident, couldn’t stop in time, went into a skid, spun 180 and crashed going backwards into a stationary van. There were 8 cars involved but no-one was hurt.

I got a Peugeot 206 which has a smaller engine but still feels like an upgrade. It cost £4000, was registered in 2003 but has only 25000 miles on the clock.

These are the things I like about it:

1) It has a “clicky thing” (remote central locking). Magic.
2) There’s more room on the window sill to rest my elbow while driving.
3) The seat belts actually roll up into the car when you get out (rather than flopping around and getting in the way of the door)
4) You can open the boot without using the key (i.e. don’t have to turn the engine off to open the boot like I did with the Ford Ka).
