5 days in
« on: 26 April 2012, 12:01:44 »
Hello,

It's been five days with the new old barge. A facelift 2.2 DTI CDX saloon.

I've already had a Basil Fawlty moment when I found the battery dead at 5am yesterday, pouring with rain (had enough juice to get the alarm going when I unlocked with the key mind).

Ah well, new battery, new wiper blades and now I just need to get the thermostat and fuel leak-off pipes changed,  and an oil change. Oh, then the four ditch-finders need changing for proper tyres. And then the wandering steering needs sorting too.

Phew, I presume, like my old Rover 75, the list never gets shorter? :)

I'm impressed with the ride quality, the little design touches, the space and how well the interior has worn compared to more modern cars with their soft-touch plastics.

Anyway, glad I found this forum, it seems full of great information and nice people too.
