    My 06 hit 200,000 miles a few weeks ago.
    It was starting to need some things, and my wife was becoming untrusting of the car.

    So, it was time for a change, and while I do like the Prius, I'm not big on the 10+ cars.
    So, we went to the Lexus dealership and picked up a 2015 Ct200h.
    I will admit, I had a hard time letting the Prius go. So many memories in that car, and so many trips. But time to make new ones.

    Here are a few pictures:
    There was a bit of a mess up with the dealership, so they ended up meeting me at my parents place and swapped cars:

    I hope to have as much success with this car as we did with our trusty Prius.

    Thanks very much guys!

    The car is great, so far sitting in the 4.9-5.0L/100km (48-47 mpg). So, I can't complain.
    Our Prius always sat around the 4.5-4.6L/100km (52-51 mpg).
    Although, when driving to the dealer on Saturday to pick the Lexus up, the Prius sat at 4.2l/100km (56 mpg), which was for 180 kms (111 miles) (as I mentioned they messed up and we had to drive the Prius around a bit that day).
    Guess it wanted to tell us off before we got rid of it.
