I'm back for Part 2 of our driving adventures. I'll let the videos do most of the talking, but I'll fill in a couple of blanks for you. As you recall, neither Dan nor I are expert manual shift drivers. This did not deter us from buying a stick shift car. It did, however, make it a bit tricky and embarrassing while test driving our new baby. Nevertheless, despite a couple of stalls, some terrible gear changes and a close call with a pedestrian, the car salesman did his job and sold us the car. He did ask for a schedule of when and where we'd be driving, but I'm sure he asks that of everyone.
A couple of days later we came back to pick up the car. Here's what happened:
Fortunately, we made it back safely and have since been getting lots of practice. We even drove up to Scotland this weekend! We definitely have a long way to go before we are seasoned drivers (especially me!), but we're getting there. And in the meantime, try and steer clear of Harrogate roads if you can :)
