New (to me)wheels
« on: 27 September 2014, 21:58:34 »
Drove to Somerset today and bought a VW Touareg 2.5tdi,6speed auto and 174 ponies so quite adequate on the road,averaged 29mpg on the drive back too which I thought was quite good at usual cruise speed,very nice inside too,nice wood and leather :y

Yep. And most car parks have spaces just about big enough for three quaters of a car.
