Interesting,i assume the "family" refers to the 7 seater and not the estate.

Had my HDI estate 16mths now on 80,000 miles. Its got to see me through another 4yrs. Measured values on MOT test 0.41 on super market fuel and dropped lead tablets from classic car weekly in the tank. Anybody else tried them? Hoping spares don`t run out for these cars as there not many left. I would not have bought mine if it were not for this forum, cars seem to get scrapped at 10 yrs old now.
