Whelbourns in Canada

• Monday 20 October 2008 - Car Shopping - Canadian Style

My Ford Escape is leased, and the three years is completed this November. So I am in the market for a replacement!

.

This Sunday morning after dropping Gemma off at MacDonalds I toured the car dealerships to look for something interesting.

.

Shopping for a new car seems to be in vogue on Sunday mornings, the world and his wife were out. The prefered method of shopping is to drive into the car dealer's car park where all the new / pre-owned (not second hand) cars are parked in rows. Then proceed to cruise around the rows of cars, looking, without even getting out of your car! Not me, I am the weirdo who parks up, and then walks around the huge car lot, peering through the windows, checking the mileage, warranty and colours.

.

Anyway I have asked the same Ford dealer to test drive the new Ford Escape and I have my eye on a nifty looking Mitsubishi Outlander.... Yeah I know gas guzzling SUV's are not fashionable. But when the snow comes this winter, I would like to have a 4 wheel drive guzzler.

.

I will update you on my great shopping expedition later this week.
