Last weekend, finally turned 40k! frown

Feels very old now ... 39k still seemed like a youngster, only a week ago.

No other signs of ageing though - was on the ramps the other day and could find no signs of rust or any other potential problems lurking. Just the usual rash of stone chips across the front bumper and bonnet.

Hopefully will still be going in another ten years!

Yeah that's rubbish mate. You want to get rid and get yourself something newer. I'll take it off your hands for £500.00 smile

It's still a baby really though. Get out there and get some miles on it smile Mine had about 60k on it when I bought it and it's got something like 130 odd thousand on it now. Prior to owning the coop i'd have avoided anything withthat kind of mileage on

Yeah, sort of torn between driving it more and keeping the miles down so I have the car for longer!
