67 today lifes good

Post by blackabbot » Fri Jul 13, 2018 8:48 am

It's my birthday today, bought my 2.0i sport in febuary last year and have put 10000 miles on her since then, started a thread called "show the 2 some love" which caused quite a heated debate, after receiving replies to my post I was worried about potential problems that posters said could arise with the 2, I am happy to report the only problem I have had was an O2 sensor light which intermittently came on and after putting some Cataclean in has not returned since, I also drive the car more robustly than when I first bought it which was probably causing a carbon build up setting off the O2 sensor. I played golf yesterday afternoon with my 40 year old eldest son who to this day I have not been able to win against, We sat and had a pint outside the clubhouse overlooking the car park looking at my Z and to this day I still have a smile on my face every time I drive her so lifes good :driving:
