One of the very few goods things that came out of the fire at David's flat was that his insurance company has handed him a large pile of cash. Now, of course, normally this money would go towards trying to piece back together your personal belongings however in David's case he is in the lucky position of being able to splash some of the cash on whatever he likes as he doesn't need to replace some of the stuff that went up in flames.

So for the last couple of weeks he's been test-driving various four-wheeled beasts with the intention of using his insurance money to find a replacement for his Renault 5 (which is pretty much coming to the end of its life).

After a lot of test-drives and several restless nights he finally settled on a Peugeot 206cc cabriolet. Luckily for him our local dealer actually had the version he wanted in stock so this morning he visited and bought his new car on his debit card! I should of course point out that it's not a trick he can normally do. Just make sure you don't say the words "Mid-life crisis".
