In those TV programmes about buying houses they always throw in something outside of what you were looking at.

My 3.0 Tdi Audi A5 is no slouch, sub 6 seconds to 60 and nice enough to chuck about a bit. But Last week one of these totally dropped me. It shot off down the "B" roads and looked to take the corners rather well too shocked

Any good ideas for you Sam?

I see you are selling one of your Pandas on the pre 1996 FB page.

I am, and have. Been working my way though my collection. 2 more to go!
I know what I want now. 335d coupe convert but it's going to be a wait to find one I like

Not yes Neil. I just spent a small fortune on it, belts, water pump, rad, oil seal in sump, service, shocks....
But it does need to go at some point

I'm coming to the conclusion I don't like the 1.6 eco; the low rev performance is so poor as to be dangerous if you're not awake and driving it is becoming a chore... the 1.9 was *much* better.

Perhaps it will fail its MOT in six months and I can nuke it smile

Well... I'd say sell your Nd grab a bargain?
Joe fixed everything that was wrong with mine smile

Its been my first oil burner and I have to admit I have really liked it and the mpg. Performance wise being the 165bhp version it goes well.

Its just the most dull car ever though. Excels at getting to b and back to a but it's hard to derive joy other than the simple fact its good at what it does

Glad to hear it helped, the 335ds certainly are popular.

Good luck selling the rest of your fleet - will you keep the newer panda?

Oops just realised you've already made a decision!

So these are all probably totally wrong.
