New Car

I had not originally planned to bother you with a blog post for this, but [Björn](http://gernert-net.de/) argues that I ought to. So behold, my new car!

To provide some background, my previous car was damaged beyond repair in a small accident[^1], which made me rather sad. This new car, however, cures that. It is an Alfa Romeo 147, built in 2004, with 2.0 TwinSpark engine (petrol, 150 hp), manual transmission and lots of extras such as leather seats, lowered suspension, a sunroof, ESC, ASR and lots of other things I don’t technically need, but really enjoy having.

[^1]: Nobody was hurt. The accident wasn’t my fault either, I was not even in the car when it happened. Needless to say that I will be more reluctant when it comes to lending this car to others.

It needs a new radio, for iPod compatibility (I am currently using an FM transmitter, and while it works, it is not exactly an ideal experience). In every other respect, it is great and I love it.
