Happy New Year, dear reader!
May this year be one that brings you the desires of your heart!
May it also grant me the desires of my heart too.
When it comes to cars, I used to be extremely clear about what the desire of my heart was.
I longed for a Peugeot 307 hatchback.
For some years, I waited for the perfect combination of factors to come together so I could buy myself one.
In the meantime, I would pass by the Peugeot showroom at Sarit, just to gaze at the car and…dream.
Sadly, the perfect combination of factors is yet to come together.
Tired of longing for the same thing for so long, other culprits have begun to steal my heart.
One of these is a small Toyota hatchback known as the Toyota Vitz in our market or Toyota Echo and Toyota Yaris elsewhere in the world. (Is this where I stop to mention that both the Peugeot 307 and the Toyota Yaris were voted European Car of the Year earlier this millennium? Hmmm…does this say anything about my taste in cars? 😉 )
