A few weeks of storms and coastal living meant a lot of salt got washed off it today, so got a wee snap of the tints.
And she's needed jumped a fair few times the last two weeks, so fitted a new battery tonight.
And the girls just loved watching a DVD the other night when we arrived early to an event.

Slowly getting used to how **** front-wheel-drive is, and adapting to the DSG 'box which is nowhere near as nice as the ZF slush.
But noticed that it wasn't getting up to temp, and the economy was a few mpg less than expected.
As the 'box is water-cooled, there is a DSG thermostat which was knackered. Simple and cheap to replace, the car heats up perfectly now, in good time and town driving will see late 40's mpg.
Hopeful of over 50mpg on a run.

We have one as a pool car in work. Manual diesel. Took it to from Banbridge to Mallow in Cork and back on Friday and it only used half a tank. They are a fantastic car
