Nice choice! Can't say I've seen one in that colour before? Lookin bloody shiney there - someones done a wicked job of cleaning it!!!! :cheesy:

What engine did you get - TD4 or the Petrol? I originally thought about an early one but got scarred off about the reliability stories which I had heard. I assume the later model ones like yours are alot better :)

BTW - Is that a V reg or a private plate?

It is actually and 1999 V reg 1.8 petrol but previous owner fitted the full face lift conversion to it (lights bumpers rear lights and wheels) maks a big difference I think now it dosen't look like and 8 year old car as for reliability problems I still haven't came across anything with it. 8)
