I Love this car, just been from Durham down to the NEC and return at an average of 51.6mpg ( brim to brim not computer ) and err keeping up with traffic flow only officer.

This is the longest that i have kept a car for ages.

Cambelt is due in 6k so got the spanners ready before the summer holidays.

Always a good feeling. The MOT on my old S60 was due on 23 March but after 3 and a half years and 123k miles (making a total of 153k) i decided that it was time to get rid and traded it in before the MoT expired....

I know it needed pads and discs and two new tyres, I also think it was getting ready for shocks.

I'm hoping the 6 months old Merc that replaced it is as good to own
