Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Last service in November hoping to reslove lumpiness and cloud of smoke on first morning start. Asked a different mechanic to look at it last week expecting a huge bill for bearings or valves. He discovered the oil was like glue and an inferior filter had also been fitted! He flushed it, fitted a decent filter, changed the pollen filter which was sooted, and re-oiled it. Now as smooth as new and for just over £100.
What's most practical about your car?
Economical.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Great radio (Bose system).
