I used to have that model, and I still prefer it to the newer models. The newer ones have less space, especially in the boot, and they feel very plasticky. Good choice, Caz. Dude! That you would even know that is very worrying.

You have to admit though it does look like an Omega that's trying to look small.
I'm sure it's a fine motor, and Caz is obviously very happy with it. And jolly good luck to her, I say. I just like the look of the model that replaced it.

Gee. You really have been out of the loop, haven't you.

Yep, had a moan in the technical directors direction about how a project that was days late I had < 3 hours to test for quality before it was meant to be deployed and there was no spec, no details and this was for a client that has been trying their luck with getting extra because the spec wasn't tight enough. I found numerous issues, couldn't even progress past a point of critical functionality and gave up for the day In other news.... people that are blunt and honest with their feedback make better customers than the quiet type who don't know how to express what they want

I take it you prefer the front seats then. Did you clean it thoroughly? I'd recommend steam cleaning the upholstery. You might not have christen the seats, but someone else might have!

That I needn't buy the bits I was intending to purchase for the car in an attempt to solve the grinding noise under full right lock, as they're already fitted as standard. Back to the drawing board on that front then. Still, fitting some uprated ball joints might not be a bad idea though.
