a new car!

Nothing beats the smell of a new car. Our brand new Kia Sportage Pro was delivered to Antofagasta last night (just in time for Ammon's birthday)! We looked at other cars (Ford Explorer, Hyundai Terracon and Galloper) but in the end we decided on the Kia. I know, I know, another Kia. Maybe we decided on the Sportage partly because the streets here are narrow and the parking spots are tiny or maybe it was the price tag. But I think it was probably because I can relate with this car. It's comfortable, it's dependable, it's simple, it's sporty, and it's practical. No frills... kinda like me.

I dont know if I would exactly describe you as no frills, but looks like the car will be perfect.
