Season Start

I can hardly believe that the winter break is finally ending. 4 months my little one was well wrapped and connected to a power source in the garage. Summer tires and seasonal license plates forced her to stand still. And when her big brother started next to her, she grumbled under her hood.

So. tomorrow, when the first day of the month offers us its first rays of sunshine, we will uncover her and go for a first ride together. And every turn her engine will sound the most beautiful soundtrack. I will let you know how it was.

Pickup day

Arrived
So here we are. Finally arrived in Stuttgart and just one night away to pick her up
Which one is mine?
Several toys awaiting heir owners at the factory's courtyard
Truth
Even when there is a misfit to the perfect row..... but we will always return to the one and only
There she is..
It was love at first sight, when seeing her..... in her most beautiful shape

Finally.

After a seemingly endless wait, the day of pick up has arrived. With the recent restrictions due to Corona, it wasn’t sure if it would really take place at the factory in Zuffenhausen. But we caught one of the last slots before it all shuts down. It was magical. The moment you enter the room and see your car for the very first time.

Ronny did a very pleasant and memorable introduction to all the beautiful details of my Rey and her features.

And even though we couldn’t do the factory tour this time and the museum – we’ll make up for it!

It’s a girl!

During the waiting period, I daydream – which routes to drive, how it feels to change gears after years of an automatic transmission, which extras I want to have (rally stripes–maybe in Gulf livery), etc. And, at some point, you start to deal with your (well that of your car’s) personality – naming is an essential aspect of it. For me, naming (yes, my cars always have names 🙂) starts with the character and the look. How should I call the combination of tremendous power and the contrast of light and darkness, whose past carries a meaningful legacy? This time, the answer was simple and clear to me: Rey.

May the force be with me.
