Page 166 of the South West Autotrader.

Turns out I was speaking to a rep from there at a recent rolling road day - without realising.... still didn't stop him from getting a couple of facts wrong though. So, its about 1/6 of a page out of autotrader. Not a bad one for a first. Note the promotion for Briskoda.net in the right hand photo... What's my cut, Mr D?

"Copious amounts of unburnt diesel" ......I've ...cough..... seen that.......cough...........I could run my car on what yours chucks away

Hmm worrying lack of proper facts in that post then

Any sign of a smoking ban in that neck of the woods yet :P

PS did you request max torque to come in higher to avoid DMF problems Jason?
