cheers - start with the simple things I guess :)

Its only been a week, but I swear my gearbox is more like a bag of mush than it was. 3rd gear in particular is in there somewhere... Seems better when I let the revs go higher, changing up at about 2.5k Maybe its because I'm used to the laziness of a 5 pot diesel.... I think a change of...

I'm a happy bunny - 100 mile trip home, smoooth.....! And its blue. couple of little things to do that I always do to a new car - filters, oils etc, then get it up on a ramp at work and have a good look round. and polish it :)

If you buy Stella by the box, there's a comp to get a glass, free and engraved, and I won one! However, when I asked them to engrave on it "The breakfast beer", they refused, as it apparently promotes drinking irresponsibly... So I asked them to put "La biere du petit dejeuner" And they did :D
