Auf Wiedersehen Pet

civic-babe · 23rd August 2006, 14:59

Hello there from Germany

firstly let me say this is a great Website

secondly let me introduce myself I'm German still

36years of age

and lived for almost 13 years in the uk. Moved back to Germany just over 4 years ago. Anyway enough to my person, my hubby bought me recently a Civic 2.2 CTDI well we ordered it, and were told of a waiting list

more or less 3-4 Month. Great I thought the bloody car arrives mid of October and 2 weeks later I can put the winter tyres on

. Anyway about 2 weeks ago while on holiday the phone rang and my local car dealer said your car has just arrived :P :P I couldn't believe it 10 weeks early (I'm not complaining

. On that Tuesday I collected it after loads and loads of hassle with the German TUEV. Since then I must be the happiest woman driving about in Germany

And if you guys in the UK wonder how fast it goes ( 70 mph...yawn....), then you should come over and try it on the Autobahn....

I would like to take this oppertunity to say a big thanks to my hubby, Jef if you read this thanks a million, love u bucket loads

Ups of course I will get some piccies posted, gives me another chance drooling over the car again

richierich · 23rd August 2006, 15:29

Welcome Civic-babe, hope you enjoy the site. Just think of your fuel economy when you are next flying down the AutoBahn. Slow and steady wins the race, and gets 500 miles from a tank.

Trekker308 · 23rd August 2006, 16:20

Welcome civic-babe! I'm looking forward to a planned trip across to Netherlands/Germany in November and hope to let the civic 'free' when I'm there!

I've got to be a bit careful at the moment because I've only got 800km on the clock!

Welcome again!

I'm sure she will! I mean cruise control still works at 205 km/h, right?

Anyway, hertzlich wilkommen, civic-babe.

Welcome civic-babe, I just wish we could stretch our cars' legs on the motorway

Big-Chris · 23rd August 2006, 20:32

Hi civic-babe you're a lucky one, with your husband buying you a civic! (my wife keeps threatening to cancel mine unless I behave, hence the removed sig below

)

I vote we all go round civic babe's house and try out the Autobahn (what a site that would be! 200 or so civics doing 100mph+ in a convoy

)

Newboy · 23rd August 2006, 20:37

Your husband may have a lot to answer for if other halves and gf find out !!!

Welcome and enjoy.

4gotten · 23rd August 2006, 20:53

Welcome civic-babe, greetings from Germany. Now there are two forum members who can enjoy every day "no speed limt" drive on the Autobahn. Enjoy your new car.

Wahey I'm off to the Netherlands end of August as well, but as I live way down south (just before Munich) it is hell of a trip for us, specially since in the Netherlands is all speed restrictions

civic-babe · 24th August 2006, 08:18

Anyway, hertzlich wilkommen, civic-babe.

I haven't tried cruise control at that speed

, but my puppy goes a little over 205 km/h not sure if that is the feel good factor from Honda saying it goes faster then it ahould

elfa7 · 24th August 2006, 08:25

Put your puppy on a lead, and take it for a walk. Far healthier !!!!
