Yesterday actually... Drove it the local Peugeot dealership to do the paperwork on a deal I couldn't refuse
That sounds ominous...

100% swap for a 508sw v6 diesel with 5 years servicing and an unlimited mileage warranty?

Had a new windscreen fitted.Fitter said it was the original screen so did well to get to 13 years old without replacement. Also the surround was rot free which is good to know.

Driven it to Lizard Point, then to the ice cream place on the Lizard penninsula, then to Sithney for a cream tea, then Padstow and then Perranporth for chips, then back to Hayle.

Re gassed ac.

850 of its 950 grams came out. So a green dribble on the bottom of the ac compressor does not necessarily mean disaster. :-\

We always refer to it as PadStein as he owns most of it now.  :)

Oil and filter on the 3.2, coated the brake pipes with some grease and touched the rust spots on the sump in with some Krust.  :)
