The new car we have leased is the Holden Captiva CX7, some generic specs first :

3.2L V6

5 Speed Auto with Active Select

Alloy Wheels

CD Player with MP3

We then added :

Nudge Bar

Tow Bar

Window Tinting(This will be done on Friday 21st of May)

Now some photo`s :

It has a split rear door :

Or you can open the whole thing :

If you`re using all 7 seats, obviously you don`t have much boot space :

But if you really need space then you can go this way :

V6 3.2L is not quite as big as the VT`s 3.8L V6 but it is still pretty damn good :

Lots of controls on the steering wheel, Stereo controls on the right, Cruise control on the left :

Sunroof was a freebie, and still is if you want to buy one at the moment :

Nice setup in the front :

And in the back, including cup holders :

So that`s the new car. We bought it from Gerald Slaven in Belconnen. We dealt with Paul Stamatis, we were exceptionally pleased with the service we received and will recommend anyone go see him.

Commonwealth Motors on the other hand, give them a miss, Hint to Commonwealth motors, if i`m standing on your lot looking at a car for half an hour I WANT SERVICE.

I think that`s about it, I`m sure the wife will remind me of something i`ve forgotten. Bye.

Well the Commodore is slowly dying, apart from the Drivers seat which is bent, the Driver`s side door lock actuators are screwed, resulting in the doors not being able to be opened, so imagine if you will, me hauling my butt across the centre console to the passenger side to get out, if these are replaced then we need to replace the Body Control Module, all up looking at $1-$2,000 to fix it, so we`re thinking its time to investigate Car Leasing.

So today whilst Tuggeranong Auto Electric looked at the locks on the car, I went and saw GI Joe :

Verdict :
Umm, I should have waited for Inglorius Basterds to start. It was Ok, just not great, you really need to turn your brain off to watch this, but its ok as a brainless blowing crap up movie, As for Inglorius Basterds, tomorrow is Tight Ass Tuesday, so we`ll see.

Bought 3 DVD`s today, Clerks & Chasing Amy 2-Pack from Revolution CD for $11.95 thereby completing my ViewAskew universe DVD Collection and I also got Jersey Girl from K-Mart for $7, I still need to get Zack and Miri Make a Porno to complete my Kevin Smith Collection though.

Meanwhile, i`m on the downhill run to 150,000 Experience points in Farmtown, DAMN Facebook games.

Alright, i`m out. Bye.
