[Dawdy]

Ok guys thought I should formally introduce myself as I have been here a wee while

I'm Dawn but everyone calls me Dawdy, been living in Derbyshire for the past 32 years but a Cumbrian lass by birth.

I'm one of the minority who has ordered their Mokka through Motability, as I do have a disability thanks to a Volvo driver 19 years ago lol. She thought she owned the road, and wiped out the motorbike on which I was riding pillion. Resulted in an above-knee amputation of the right leg, so I am restricted to driving autos/semi-autos.

Chose a Mokka for my next car as I'd had Vauxhalls for years but made the mistake in having a Citroen Grand Picasso for my last car and have had lots of problems with it, so decided to come back to Vauxhall.

Welcome to the nuthouse
Sorry to here about the silly volvo driver

Hope you enjoy your mokka when it lands

 

[Blum]

Ah ha, finally another automatic order, nice to see your mug shot.
Down boy - Love stallion!

 

[Dawdy]

Best of it was, the volvo was repaired and I had to see it driving around town for 8 more years!!

Looking forward to my Mokka, I've ordered it in the Deep Espresso Brown so I can be driving a ChoccaMokka lol

 

[DietCokeBloke]

A belated welcome Dawdy, enjoy your choccamokka and yeah watch out -now Love Stallion knows you're female he'll be attempting to hump the leg you've got left.

, ordered it in the Deep Espresso Brown so I can be driving a ChoccaMokka lol

When I saw that in the 40 page brochure i could have fancied that, but then since ordering (early September) i have thought of different colours, different options but what will be will eventually be!
34 days and not counting.
Er indoors has a Caffe latte Nissan, it would look like a Starbucks!

If it's any consolation your white Mokkawill probably end up a a bit brown after a few days of hard winter use.

Don't think i'd of been able to hack that

Woohoo choccamokka we should all have a meet up once our mokka's have finally arrived

 

[Dawdy]

Sounds good to me

Volvos have changed but I still hate driving them at work. Much prefer the Merc as I can fit a crew mate infor company. Our Volvo's are crammed full of lifesaving gear but no room for patients. Almost over the weight limits.
Sorry to hear about the amputation Dawdy but welcome to the mad house.

PS.forgot I went to crashed Volvo yesterday. complete write off cause the guy couldn't spend 10 mins waiting for the windscreen to clear. Fortuantely only hit a parked car. The Joys of working in the Ambulance service, finding good afe scars and and nice houses.

 

[Andy_H]

Suppose for ultimate 'take the mic' it should be at a coffee shop? LOL

 

[hads123456789]

Any preference on shop?
starbucks, costa or cafenero all near me plus some less national brands

 

[MALC]

Forget starbucks Non tax paying B*******s

 

[hads123456789]

forgot about that as dont bother reading papers or watching the news. rarely anything worth knowing anyhow.
Think we will we need a north and south sub division of this forum for meets lol??
especially with some in the northern scottish isles and me on the south coast

 

[Andy_H]

a pub that does a good steak and or does coffee would be my preference but dont suppose that fits the bill lol

 

[MALC]

That sound good Would be great if we could fill the car park with shiny new Mokkaswouldn'tit??

 

[hads123456789]

It would soon work out if the MPG stands up to its printed figures on a decent drive to a Mokka meet and then see everyones different combination of mokka configurations.
Shiny New Mokka's, currently thousands in lands far away but all with Opel badges on at the moment. cant wait for the dayI actually get a build date!! then I would at least know its changing etc if theres a delay.

[Dawdy]
