I guess there's a reason no one wants to put many miles on an auto 406

Only patient owners with deep pockets need apply.

Wha....what's that THING on the steering wheel you know if you bought that car you'd rip that off as soon as you were at the end of his road.

Looks alright but with the 13 year old "low mileage" High Pressure injection pumpe de' explosion on board it could be a disaster waiting to happen.

[steve_earwig]

Whar? Oh, it's got a steering wheel cover. They love them here, maybe it makes the steering wheel easier to grip when you're too drunk to stand up or something. I think if were me it'd be off before the end of the road - open window, chuck, close window.

Which pumpe d'esposion? It's a petrol

The 'HP' petrols have direct injection under many pressures. See also DaiRees

[steve_earwig]

Just looks like a 2.0 16 valve injection to me

It might be, I just thought all 2.0 pez's went HPi around that time, I'm not sure why you'd market two 2.0 pez's that are basically* the same*? be interesting to here from that DaiRees why he chose his and whether 'normal' pez engines were also available.

Dai said he thought he'd have the best of both worlds. A smooth petrol engine with reasonable fuel costs.
He soon realised he had the worst of two worlds. Increased fuel consumption and higher repair costs.

Is this the same man who chose a 1.6 engine for an enormous Volvo Estate?

I'm pretty sure "normal" petrol engines were still being produced, the HPi's seem more of an experiment and were soon discontinued when it was discovered now troublesome they could be. It's a shame really, I don't think they were that bad and other manufacturers still seem to be using the technology (Mistershitty?)

Climate Control set to 14 degC? someone's a/c isn't working.......

44950 miles, last service 12.2k ago, (so probably about 2.5 years back).
