Ok there are a few comments about a new car and the winter wheels I'm selling from the current car as they wont fit the new one.
So I am not allowed, 'by she who must be obeyed', to divulge the new toy until its actually on the drive even though its deal done.
Any of you want to play 20 questions to guess what it is?
Remember I can only answer yes or no
