A few weeks ago, I brought my long and drawn-out car search to an end, by putting a deposit down on a new car. After a lot of soul-searching and wringing of hands over price and features vs. fuel economy - I decided not to buy a Prius. Instead, I went with the 2007 Volvo S40 T5:
The Volvo S40, in Passion Red
In the end, it came down to what I actually wanted to drive. And the Volvo not only is fun to drive, but it looks sharp, and it is reasonably environmentally friendly, for a non-hybrid car.
The only problem is that I went way over budget. Oh, and I'm so picky, that I had to have the car ordered from the factory (Belgium) in order to meet my needs. So, I won't have it until November. But I am so glad that the search is over, and I am looking forward to taking possession of my new machine.
