The new motor

Finally picked up the new car yesterday. After all the dilly-dallying
with Lagunas and Mondeos, we got an X-Type Estate.

As you'll see from the photos, it does look like a bit of a hearse.

However - my view is that I'll spend more time inside driving it,
where it is extraordinarily comfy, than on the outside looking at it.
The other thing is the size of the boot! We'll have difficulty filling
that bad boy.

Of course, I'll now have to put up with the ribbing about driving an
old man's car...made worse by Clarkson and chums recently.

Isn't the X-type a mondeo under the skin anyway? So you didn't go too far off piste

True enough. It uses a lot of Mondeo parts too, which will keep upkeep costs down, hopefully. Will have to drive it over to your place on the ferry sometime!
