Forum note: The Cambelt interval on all HDi engines is every 96,000 miles or 5 yearly (whichever comes first) the owners manual states this for cars of 1998 to 2001 but the interval may have been extended on 2002+ cars.

Well I'm 21 and had my first daughter at 20, at the same age a bought my first own car, the 406.
As it seems you were 20 too when you had the first baby I was curious to see if there were any more resemblances!

don't tell me :mrgreen:
Since I bought the 406 I drive like a old man anyway so there's something true about that!
The 406 is just so relaxing I can't drive it as the chassis would deserve.
