PM incoming...

No dramas coming home from work down my favourite test track back lane. Had a quick check of oil, coolant and oil filler cap, no signs of HGF that I can see.

[Cavcraft]

Ok I got it wrong about driver's seat: mess under the cover. Ripped/torn in places, doesn't look pleasant!

Could get hands down both sides of car behind rear wheels

I can only hear standard cheapish tyre noise on Tarmac from the rear

Rust and or hole in bottom of passenger door

Everything's for sale. Including this 106.

 

Do you still have a 405 TD estate?

[Cavcraft]

 

 

Rear bearings seem ok (can get my hands twixt wheel and arch either side)

I see what you did there. Yes but that's the exception to the rule at the minute, soz

[KruJoe]

You'll have to try harder than that to put us off!

Swaps? It's been pre-approved by a Barbara Cartland-style dog.

Just noticed the SVO number plate!

That's a bit posh though, should be WVO to match the stains

 

About the slowness... the 1.5 certainly isn't a slouch. I've driven three in recent months, and Will's one can keep up with a D-Turbo'd BX piloted by W_Cleland at FULL HOON on B-roads, the XUD only pulling away up significant hills.

 

So the 1.4... it'll be interesting back-to-back. For sure it'll be a more sedate experience than the Sporting*, though once wound up, I bet it'll carry speed* more comfortably on our type of roads.

It oozes veg, I spilled some in the back. Consider it rust-proofing. VE TDI engine loves the veg, wouldn't have it otherwise!
