We got a BMW!!!

So, Ron and I have been talking for some time about getting a car thats an automatic so that I can drive it. I did learn how to drive the stick shift but I still didnt like it and so I never used the car. So we have been searching online in Sweden for used cars and we came across this BMW that we really liked.

Today we drove an hour and a half to the dealership and asked if we could see the car and do a test drive - so they made a copy of Ron's personal card and gave us the keys - of course we are in Sweden so something funny was bound to happen - we got in the car and the gas was on empty so we went to tell the dealership and instead of putting gas in the car they gave us cash so that we could - hahaha.

The car drove really nice and we both like the model and the color and the price was reasonable so we decided to go for it and I got to drive it home! Yeek!

Okay - so here are some details about the car, its a 2002 BMW 330Ci and it has all these cool features like GPS and several sets of keys (like one for valet that opens the doors and drives the car - but cant unlock the glove box or trunk) and we got a 6 CD changer and it looks like we can connect our phone somehow and anwser the phone with the steering wheel - it also has an alarm system that goes off when someone trys to open the doors or if their is any movement inside the car - and when you unlock the car and get in there is a red light that will flicker if anyone was messing with the car while you were away.

It also has this feature where two people can adjust the seat and mirrors to their preference and save it in the car so that you just have to press a button and the seat and mirrors will automatically adjust to that persons settings. Also, the outdoor mirrors are heated and the tires can drive year round - summer and winter (so we don't have to change them) :)


Here are some pictures!
