2.4 every which way!! Manual 2.4 Type S will do it for you, as Steve says! By the way Steve, the dipstick is a bugger to get out and doesn't show a proper level! Maybe just mine! Pain! Jon

:P I'm old and boring...but have the 2.4 Touring like Steve! I haven't been on for a while...because the car has been so reliable!. Done 8k since I bought it. 1 service and I've upgraded to basic Pagid pads and Brembo Discs on front! Tidy too! That's it. Couple of longish runs last 2...

B) Errr. 6 months with 55 reg 2.4 EX Tourer. 76k when bought. 80k now! But I am retired!! Faults..none! Just got front brake pads to replace. Likes? Everything! Dislikes? hmmm..no! Score? Has to be 10/10. Best car I've owned? Yup! Only matched byJag X Type Sport Premium auto 3.0...

Yes, they did!! With my Volvo V70 d5. 56 reg. £7k to buy. Had it looked over by MRG, Chippenham, the best Volvo garage, and they found up to £4K's wprk needed doing! LOL! Never did proper check, according to MRG, and got bitten big!! I demanded they do repairs or replace. Got £6.2k back so not...

Lol...Stevo's just over half my weight....and I ain't that fat. Been doing weights for 30 years, just starting to slow down...... Better half is his weight and I think there is some sag my side... :P

6'4" and 103 kg. Me and drums/cases in car settle it nicely, but it's nowhere near the 450 limit. Closer to 300 all in! Definitely smoother ride(bit more roll!) :blink:
