No Zoe, as a fellow American who bought my used car earlier this year, those Americans who say you can find a used car under 10k have not shopped in this current market. Post COVID, prices are insane for used cars. Congrats!
I have a car emergency kit and a fire extinguisher! I havent had to use any of it, but some things I keep inside are spare clothes, rain ponchos, first aid kit, jumper cables, headlamp, flashlight, emergency glow sticks, reflective triangles for the street, toilet paper, a multitool. I think preparedness is super important, especially since youre in Canada and do long drives regularly. For you I'd include an emergency foil blanket and a regular blanket/gloves/a hat. If you get stranded out in the cold, you don't want to freeze in your car.
Congrats on your new car Zoe, you deserve those beautiful seats! The only reason I have a car emergency kit/utility kit is because I go into nature quite often. So I keep blanket, rain coat, lighter and grill stuff, gloves.
inside the glove box: hand sanitizer & napkins; trunk: jumper cables (now an electric battery pack so I don’t need anyone else to jump my car), tire iron, car jack, spare tire, and blanket in the trunk.
Congratulations on your new car, Zoe! It's Beautiful! It baffles me to think people comment telling you what you should do with your money lol so silly!
car accessory essentials for me, jumper cables/jumper batters, hand sanitizer, small garbage can (I get mine from amazon, it fits in the cupholder, holds straw wrappers and other small things), napkins and wet wipes in the glove box. CAA is such a lifesaver to have! my dad buys memberships for my siblings and I for christmas every year. such good peace of mind!
Congratulations! Since you live somewhere where it gets cold and snowy I'd recommend a car emergency kit just in case you get stuck. I had one when i lived in upstate ny
Congrats on the new car!!! How many miles did you get your? What has been your experience with repairs? ❤ My first car was a Volkswagen it was so sturdy loved that but yeah it was pricey for repairs lol For those who live in the US one thing I learned is that not all used cars in the dealership are certified. Certified means the car has been fully inspected and pass test. I recently went to a few Toyota dealerships and none of their cars were certified!
Brilliant video Zoe!! Really enjoyed everything about it :) If possible in the future, could you do a video revving up your car? So we can hear how it sounds!
Congrats on black pearl! Dumb question from an American here, lol, but how did you know to speak French when ordering coffee? Do you primarily speak French irl when you’re not vlogging?
not a dumb question!!! i mostly speak English in my life with friends and at work… but when Im out running errands I will usually do so in French, unless I hear the sales person/barista/waitor etc. speaking english :)
Congrats once more on your beautiful new car Zoe 👏 it suits you so well and I LOVE the light interior ✨️ me and my partner are on the hunt for a new used car too! I'm a little nervous but I hope we will find sth good! We're thinking about a Toyota and some friends have recommended specifically Toyota Yaris but i have no clue when it comes to cars 😂
thank you Poppy!! It's nice that you two are on the hunt together 🫶🏻 I hope you find the perfect car 😍 my best advice is to be as patient as you can, because that's when you can spot something good without salesperson pressure
Congrats Zoey! 🎉 I'm currently driving a 2009 Corolla with 260k miles; I want to get something before I NEED something new, but I like having the extra money so muuuuch 😂
When I think car emergency kit, I'm thinking stuff you need if you break down on the side of the road. Extra caps for the air inlet things on your tires, tire pressure gauge, jumper cables, one of the metal blankets in case it's winter, I also throw in a hoodie, wool socks (also in Canada!), bottled water, a box of granola bars, a roll of toilet paper, beeswax candles (beeswax specifically can be safely burned in an enclosed space to provide some light and heat - need to be careful with pets and kids, and you can't keep them in the car in the summer), and matches, and a couple reflective triangles. Some of this may not be necessary if you only drive in a city, but if you drive in rural areas where you may have to wait several hours for a tow then I would have all of that.
Congrats! IDK how it works in Canada, in the US they definitely try to sell you those extra things. Here, you can actually talk them down on those extra warranty things (usually what happens is I decline, they then offer another lower cost, sometimes even a 3rd lower offer). I don't usually get them but with a used car that is 9 years old, I can see a decent argument for paying that extra money. I have had two VWs (I have a 2020 Golf right now). And they are reliable though my first one was involved in Dieselgate (where they lied about the fact that it was actually dirty and not within NY and CA emission regulations) and they bought it back (at a premium for lying to everyone). 11K for a VW SUV is not a bad price 😂 And you are right, Canada's weather (except maybe in Vancouver?) is hard on vehicles. A used car from California is generally worth more than th same exact used car in Massachusetts - just more issues with rust and wear when you deal with winter.
wow I completely forgot about Dieselgate LOL... that was such a big scandal! And you are so right about the prices in winter areas, our cars just do not last as long! Anyone who has a beautiful vintage car, for example, can only take it out in summertime
That’s my car’s name! lol❤ I’m going to have to give my pearl up tho, the repairs are going to cost more than she’s worth so 😢 but congrats 🎉 there really is a special freedom in having a car
zoe I'm moving to canada soon(Ontario) do you think I can survive without french? I'm moving from the US omg so scared hopefully I can adjust ok. Also like I've been following you since i was like 20 and now I'm turning 25! Maybe we will cross paths in canada :) And this video is inspiring me to get my license!
Please don’t “throw” Maggie in your car 🥺 I’m kidding, of course. I laughed hard when you said it 😁 Congrats on your purchase, this car suits your esthetics!
hii! its a used car, i just got it from a dealership :) and my rent is this price because I live in a one bedroom with my boyfriend and he owns the condo. So my rent goes to condo fees, internet, electricity etc
My french is really bad but even with subtitles I couldn’t figure out what you were saying the first 2 tries 😂 Is it the accent or is my french just hopeless? 💀
It sounds like your insurance was accurate. The amount you received should put you in the same position you were in before the accident, which clearly yours did, i.e., the owner of the exact car you lost. Two well-known resources for Canadian Black Book's Value Your Vehicle tool and Kelley Blue Book's Car Value tool, both of which started out as periodicals that published vehicle valuations and were distributed to dealerships to help them determine what to pay for trade-ins and set fair prices for used vehicles You should never pay more than the amounts in these books. I would hazard a guess that your cars blue book value is the amount of the cheque you received. We have a blue book value in Australia, which works this way as well.
Am I the only one who would rather put that as a down payment on a newer less mileage car and have a car payment vs buying a 10 year old car 😮 I feel like no matter how “in shape” a car is years matter
totally makes sense to want a newer car! because my income is so variable, a monthly payment would have put some major stress on my budget, so it wasnt something I felt comfortable doing right now :)

what is your dream car?? mine is probably a jeep or a bronco or a G wagon 😂
a range rover haha
A black jeep is my dream car ❤
Jeep Wrangler or Toyota 4Runner
A permanent uber! Lol
G wagon!!!

OK so its the same here... it all changed post COVID and prices are through the roof 😭

Would a fire extinguisher explode in the car in hot summer weather?
@@Sahara333 I keep it in my glove box and I have not had issues. They make ones designed for cars. I wouldn't leave it in direct sunlight.
Make sure that you don’t put very much on the key as it can damage the ignition over time if something is heavy and pulling down on it.
ah I didn't know this!! I ended up with a fluffy keychain, but it's pretty light 🤪

this is great, thank you!!
The Subaru couple was spot on for me, lol! Cars are so important, we put so much money into them we have to identify with them for sure!
Such a good purchase! PS lmao @ Doggy in the car 😆
Congratulations on your new car, Zoe! It's Beautiful! It baffles me to think people comment telling you what you should do with your money lol so silly!

Beautiful video. Congratulations! 🌹🌹 Where did you get your sound track? I really like the music.
We went with a Honda CRV because we love the reliability of a Honda, but I almost got the Tiguan after having one as a rental. They are so nice!!
You can buy at the end of leasing. I did that and got it directly from Honda financial services so I didn’t pay stupid dealership fees

French is only in Quebec and New Brunswick. So in Ontario people speak english.
Congratulations Zoe! You deserve it! ❤
thank you so much 🥹💖
Your skin is so flawless omg ❤❤❤
I just recently got my 10 year old tiggy too!

hahahahah 😂😂 thank you so much! 🩷
Zoe you needdddd a bob when you were in the car showing your tissues and wet wipes, that length was PERFECT for you!!!!
dont tempt meeee 🙈🙈
I was thinking the same thing!!! In one video she said she doesn’t like to style her hair but it was looking so cool with a little swoop inwards 😍
Long time viewer, first time commenter, I would love details about your rings, are they both sapphire rings?
hiii 💖 they are both sapphires and diamonds, the rectangular one was my aunt's and the oval one was my moms
Your snake tattoo is siiick!
thank youuu!!!
"IT'S FOR THE HANDS" 😂
HAHAHAHHAA
You make some fabulous points!

I don‘t know if that is mandatory in Canada (in germany it is), but please carry a first aid kit with you in the car.❤🤗
great idea!!!
Hi, I’m new here but how come you chose to buy new rather than used and how is your rent so affordable in montreal!?
hii! its a used car, i just got it from a dealership :) and my rent is this price because I live in a one bedroom with my boyfriend and he owns the condo. So my rent goes to condo fees, internet, electricity etc
@@ZoePritchard oh ok, thanks for explaining! Can’t wait to binge watch your videos!
My french is really bad but even with subtitles I couldn’t figure out what you were saying the first 2 tries 😂 Is it the accent or is my french just hopeless? 💀
probably my accent 😊😂
@@ZoePritchard maybe a bit of both 🤪
She’s beauty she’s grace
💖💖💖💖
Clicked right away ❤
love youu 🥹💖
I would never buy from a dealer. Taxes are 2 high
Why is everyone being so annoying about your car. Your car looks great
haha who knows! thanks so much 🩷

Me too! But I think she wants to buy a new car in a couple of years so it makes sense after losing her car that was just as old if I’m not mistaken
