Default New XFire owner

Hello everyone, I have just taken possession of a 04 Crossfire or rather, she seems to have taken possession of me.

I have been a Ford Cougar 2.5 VT owner for the past 8 years and thought I would never find a car that grabbed my attention as much as the Cat did, That was until last week.

I was nosying on Ebay for cars that were automatic and within 30 miles of where I lived. The only car that grabbed my attention was the XFire.
My husband has wanted me to downsize the Cougar for a little while now -
Unfortunately, he wasn't specific enough!
I went down in width, height and length . He did not mention engine size

I managed to talk him into going to have a" look" at the XFire. He was smitten and yesterday we got her!

All week I had been upset at parting with the Cougar, but yesterday I dropped her off and bid her farewell.
The XFire was ready to collect and I actually drove away with hardly a backward glance. I took the XFire for a drive last night and the grin on my face convinced me that I had made a great choice.

My car reg is LC04 ***... to be known as Elsie. Hence my forum name.

My real name is Jacquie Stewart - my husband should have known I would not be content with a Fiesta!!

Anyway, after going on so much, I do hope I will be welcomed and look forward to meeting you all soon.
Pity I cannot make the meet this weekend.
