Martin B Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 I hope the new car brings you as much fun as herbie did! I'm sure you'll like her, and she'll like you! Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieP Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Sorry about Herbie Louise. I remember a conversation we had about cars via PM when I first joined the forum, and I know how much you loved him. I am sure his new owners will be very excited about having him and will lavish love and attention on him... Good luck with the new one... sounds.. erm..... interesting...

Louise Posted February 16, 2007 Author Share Posted February 16, 2007 It isn't a sweetie pink it is a dark dusky pink The newer Yaris does not seem to come in this colour it was a special edition mine is nearly 5 and I have seen a 4 year old one in the same colour but that is it Cordoba Red I think it is called I think Ford have a similar colour in their new vehicles My mum said she had seen a similar colour in a different make of Japanese car the other day too It was a nice drive in this morning I am still learning where everything is in the car but I will get there she is very nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 You didn't get the Yaris from Wheels at Whitecraig did you Louise - they had one the other week, that I had a seat in, but chookiehubbie didn;t like it, and I noticed that it was away today when we were there. It was a sort of deep maroony pink colour, and was really quite nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louise Posted February 18, 2007 Author Share Posted February 18, 2007 No Shona I got it from Belmonts Suzuki down at Sighthill Sounds like the same colour though I am hoping to give it a wash and get some pics this afternoon when I get home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louise Posted February 19, 2007 Author Share Posted February 19, 2007 Fingers crossed this works me and pictures don't really get on Hopefully that is the new car all I have to do now is think of a name Any suggestions Sorted for you Louise, claret Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 I see what you mean Louise - she IS very pretty isn't she? Will clash a bit with my van, but goes well with my hair! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Its a lovely car and a gorgeous colour. (Why not call her Claret?!??) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 What a brilliant idea Egluntine (I was debating going back to plain brown hair next time, but Martin was so nice about the colour of it when I saw him on Saturday, and another friend said to keep it, that I am thinking of keeping the claret colour now).

Egluntyne Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 I should keep it if I were you! Mine was a natural auburn in the past. When it started to need a bit of help, I went burgundy. Was persuaded to go brown recently. Its OKish but I prefer a bit of pazzazz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 I think mine's practically white underneath now, but I used to have deep reddish-brown hair (Ex soon changed that!). I like the red personally, but my mother keeps going on about it being 'unsuitable for a woman of my age'. But then I never feel or act my age, so I may keep it and she can just lump it. I went tabby a couple of years ago (there's a pic somewhere on my album) but the blonde bits didn't suit my dark skin. http://club.omlet.co.uk/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=6825 Here's the pic sorry for hijacking your thread Louise!

Snowy Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 LOVE the car Louise! No help with names though - not very imaginative with names! Gorgeous colour! Your hair looked great tabby Claret, but while you can get away with claret, go for it I say! It definitely suits you! One day you won't be able to get away with it any more - that's the time to go tabby! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
