I'll be happy with the new when it's running as sweetly as the old.

One happy new owner here, just home from darkest Birmingham - would never have escaped without AA's directions! I'll think of this as the "reference" 2.2 from now on. Surprisingly quick, nimble and true. But to give a balanced comment, it has to be said that there's this chunk of glass superglued to the underside of the dash - some occult practices going on... and it beeps continuously in reverse (first job tomorrow!) Apart from that and of course the filth - awesome. A great credit to AA and Marks DTM for maintaining the car at this standard.

the upside down glass was for a nicely hidden satnav mount, with no tell tale rings on the windscreen  :y

Having driven that car, I thought it went very well for a 2.2 auto.  Probably goes even better if it wasn't caked in dirt and grime ;D ;D

From the angle the photo was taken, it looks like it hides the MID, but not when sat in drivers seat.
