Celsior picked up today!

[The-Acre]

After a hideous journey to Essex on the M25 the ride home was superb, quiet, relaxed and it drove beautifully.  So far so good.  I'll get some decent photos on soon for anyone interested.  Road tax only £265. All I need to do now is find out how to stop it talking to me in Japanese every time I start it!

Please do not forget to include a pic of one of the two Geisha girls I believe are standard on this model Phil.

This is the one they gave me with the car, she said can you drop me off at Cracket Rane services, of course she meant Clacket Lane!

Ah dear old Clackett Lane Services. Always my first port of call upon my twice yearly return trips from Spain. Such a haven of peace and tranquility, a veritable Jewel in the Crown of British Motorway Services cuisine.

I think that dear lady cleaned my shoes on the occasion of my very first visit.  :):)

Congratulations on your new purchase, sounds like an interesting car and look forward to the pictures.

one of the benefits of imports is the cheap road tax LOL

What’s the reason for that then? I have the same car and pay £305 ( I think)

Because imports have no emmision testing / rating on the v5 so they cannot rate the car when it coems to tax. So they have a standard tax rate.
