2:24. Weeeeeeell? 

I'm tempted to drive round to Rainworths but mrs 33q has blocked the drive with washing on the line.

Obviously someone who never takes the washing off the line...

Picked him up at 12 noon. Decided to drive straight back to the accomm and have some lunch. 

What can I say? Smooth drive, easy to handle, has about same power as the 1.5 diesel Juke. Glad of the sunroof and satnav, lots of bells and whistles for me to figure out.

 

Love it, love it, love it!!!!!!

 

Will upload some pics in a bit.

As they say, "Comparisons are odious!" especially when compared with a Juke!!

Well done! You are clearly thrilled. But what about the 12-speaker soundsystem... Oh yes, and did you spot the tailing Yeti with all the washing draped around it?

What's his name? BTW how do you know he's a him? Just curious...

It's a BOY!

Congratulations!

So what did he way and have you decided on a name yet?

Now then, I suppose we'll have to wet the baby's head.

I'll go out and check the sound system properly in a bit, but sounded ok from the drivers seat on the way back although I've yet to configure it.

Its a boy because I ordered a boy and his name is Snowy although I'm worried he may melt in this heat with a name like that 

Welcome to the fold Snowy!

 

Good to hear that your first impressions are positive MarieK. The sunroof is a real advantage in this weather and as Johann stated is great for keeping the interior cooler when tilted.

 

Have fun and enjoy!

Can he see the pub from where he is?

Does he like a XXXX? Is he secretly an Aussie?

 

 

And for those of you that have no idea what i am blathering on about:-

 

I wonder whether MarieK is quiet because she's at lunch...or she's playing with her new Yeti? Now, let me think...

 

Oh, I hadn't refreshed my browser. Not quiet at all...

What was the first thing you played on the stereo? Radio or CD/SD card? If the latter, what tune?  Are we nosy or what? This might have to be a new thread. A bit like what website did you go to first on the Internet? (Me? www.tomrussell.com), way back in the mid 1990s...

There!  Now we can all relax.   

 

Congratulations, Marie!  This time it's a REAL welcome to the Yeti Club! :beer: :cocktail:

It was set on Radio 2 by the dealer so I just played that until I got back. It reads my SD card fine and is currently copying SD tunes to HDD on Columbus.

There are three speakers in each door for the sound system, I have nothing to compare it with as I haven't had a yeti before but it sounds good to me.

Paired my iphone5 easily on bluetooth.

Will have a go at voice control next, that should be a laugh with my accent 

 

My boot liner (travall) and mats (from carmats.co.uk) fit fine. I trimmed the boot liner where indicated to allow for spare wheel, its a nice chunky rubber liner that I should be able to pressure wash. Will include some pics of this shortly.

We've just taken delivery of a new Lowchen Pup all white apart from its ears which are black, we have christened him Chalkie

If I had a Dalmatian I'd call it Stripe.

If I had a Dalmatian I'd call it Stripe.

If a had a Zebra I would call it spot 

I had a dalmatian for 14 years. She was named Kelly but nutjob would have been more appropriate 

To Snowy (& MarrieK) ..........From Tony & Tigger

I've posted a few pics in the yeti picture thread.

Guys, can I just say a big thank you to all of you who have helped me through this 'long' wait. It probably seems even longer to you than it does to me 

You helped me decide on my choice of spec and extras and I think it was a wise choice. You also helped me to while away the hours on here with discussion and laughs.

Many thanks once again (you know who you are!) 

 

 

I'll say a goodbye now because there's no need for me to post anymore 

 

Aye right...you don't get rid of me that easily 

Phew!!!

Just been for another wee drive, it would be rude not to 

Voice control works fine, I just need to learn what command words to use.

I don't think 'tak us hame Snowy lad' will work somehow  :wonder:

I'm still trying to get my voice control to deploy the 20mm canons usually concealed behind the DRLs.

Perhaps I need to be a little calmer when I utter expletives when some pr*t cuts me up.
