New Wind owner Manchester

Hello everyone IA week ago I saw an amazing little black car in a car park.  I literally ran to have a look. I fell in love at first sight. Hours of Internet searching I am now the proud owner of a 1.2 wind collection.  I love it. Looking forward to finding out more and sharing tips [/color]

Hello and welcome
You will love it. but the best thing is, the Wind is something to be proud of.

And its fun to drive.

Though do watch out for reduced rear vision due to small rearscreen and large B pillars. You do get used to it though 

I just park nose in when I can, as its easier 

Evening.  Your profile picture appears to be upside down.

I am going to have to try and fix my prole pic..A poor show for someone who teaches graphic design. I up loaded it from my mobile and it seems to orientate my pics at strange angles.

I took my wind aka Bat Bug to my garage man to get a full service and new front tires. I knew when I bought the car the front tyres were needed changed. Also to check the things which you mentioned. It had a service last year on first inspection the oil was old and like treacle. Everything else was brilliant. It only has 22k on the clock.

As you can tell I am not a petrol head all I know is where oil and screen wash go. That's not that I don't want to learn. One of my favourite shows is wheeler dealers. However I do appreciate and love beautiful, ingenious and quirky design and the wind has all that.

My only worry is petrol consumption coming from an ago or a hair dryer on wheels as my friends would say.However it would do terrific miles to the gallon even at high speed. I am hoping it will be about £10 more a week to run a good trade off for feeling safe and having the comfort and features the wind has to offer.

Whatever your profile pic looks like we will accept you here.  

Over your side of the Country you are getting the weather to enjoy the car, can you send some sun over my side of the Pennines please....
