I do. It's my day to day car. Estate 110 hdi. Now self employed I was going to get a van. Filled the back end with my carpentry gear and it swallowed everything. Don't think I'll bother with the van yet, will see how it goes. Just need some bars to go on the rails so I can move some wood about. So c...

It's the 2.0.

My motor goes really well: 406 est 98000 miles 2. HDI

Is it anything to worry about?

Blimey, it's getting near the annual nail biting visit to the MOT bay.
Is it worth changing the air filters and all that for the emissions test?

Not done more than 7000 since late change

Waddaya think

OK you might know the answer to this, or perhaps have a good laugh at least: I tried to marry up the ignition key to get the remote working again. Didn't work, again, despite following grateful step by step instructions from another member. Must be me I'm thinking. However, it knocked out the centra...
