Exclamation Showroom

Hi there,

So i went to the showroom today to have a look for my new car! I went to that S2000 4 U place, which is miles away for me, but i just wanted a look and figured that they seem to have largest number in stock. There were a few nice ones in my price range, but they weren't exactly what i wanted, so i left it. One good thing was that i sat down in one for the first time! Now that may sound pretty mundane to someone who does it everyday, but when you've driven a 1996 Ford Mondeo for the last four years, which, incidently, drives like a tank, it's something pretty special. First observation, the steering wheel is tiny! It's like driving a little noddy car! Apart form that, it was totally fine; i was worried, cos being the wrong side of 6 feet tall, i didn't know if i was gonna fit. They guy was pretty friendly, not pushy at all and seemed to know his stuff. Anyway, i guess it's just a case of waiting now till the right one comes along.

Cheers, Matt

Was it an aftermarket one?

You think the standard wheel is big?
