Chuffed with it so far - worlds apart from the old 1996 diesel with all it's bells and whistles (like the auto dimming rear view, which is a bit of a novelty to me, and headlights that actually work)..

Some niggles to sort out - fuel consumption is a bit high (0.3gal/h at idle in neutral, I seem to recall reading it should be 0.2 in neutral, 0.3 in drive, 0.4 with a/c on), and there's a bit of an oily smell so I really need to check the plug wells for oil..

Other than that it seems to go like hot snot (compared to the diesel, not so much compared to the 'other' car) and drives beautifully.

Oh and the bumper isn't hanging off like the old car 

Might even post some pictures of this one!

0.3 sounds about right for 3.2 in neutral.

Ah.. must be my failing memory In that case I won't go chasing things that aren't broken!
