So 1 day short of the 15 Month point, it’s finally here.

I know yellow won’t appeal to everyone but i think it looks great plus it’s easy to spot in the car park.

Car History:
Ford Fiesta
Vauxhall Astra Mk6
Mazda 3
BMW 2 Series Coupe
Mercedes A Class
Vauxhall Astra Mk8 (Lease ended early)
Renault Austral

Beautiful looking car, hope it gives you years of enjoyment.

The new Astra is indeed nice + I do like sme of more, shall I say adventurous colours.

Enjoy 🙂

That is a very good looking car, I hope you enjoy many happy miles of motoring behind the wheel. Colour is always subjective but I love it, and like you say, you’ll never misplace it amongst the sea of grey and black.

Vauxhall have a history of making really good looking cars but it seems to go in cycles, and at the moment it seems to me like they’re knocking it out of the park. All of their newer models are massive improvements and have become desirable once more. I considered a Mokka, even went and sat in one and was impressed, but the wait time put me off. They should now cap it off by bringing back the Manta.

Great looking car, similar to the Jeep colour I’m going for.

Apologies for hijacking the thread but I didn’t want to start another one with the same title!

Who else is picking up there new car today? I finally get to pick up my Kona EV today (ordered 27th June 2022) To be fair, it was ready for collection last month but I decided to wait another couple of weeks and get the new reg.

I’ll post a couple of pics later.

@Retro89 Astra looks great in that yellow colour – enjoy!

You’ll love it, the Kona Ultimate was my first electric car and the Ultimate spec is great. The boot shape should work better for me with the Jeep Avenger, and I love it’s look, but I’ll always have a soft spot for the Ultimate.
