Hi all,
Just joined the forum having used it to do my research before buying my new toy :D. 04 3.0i E85 auto 86k.
Drove it back 50 miles (& plenty of smiles :D :D ) with the roof down yesterday. Only covered 7k miles in last 3 years since last oil service. Will be the first job I do plus brake fluid change. Love it already :oops:
Service book is not stamped up properly but there's stacks of indy receipts for work done over the last 4 years/8k mls so that & the lovely colour combo swayed it for me :thumbsup:.
Hood motor has been cleaned lubed & fluid topped up, works great but i reckon I'll be paying a visit to ducklakeview next spring :driving:
Bound to be asking plenty I'd questions on here being a noob but looking forward to it :)
Hopefully the pics will work!
All the best,
Dave

Hi and welcome OP. :thumbsup:

Lovely looking car you have there - I'm a bit of a sucker for red leather!

I like having a decent drive home when I collect a car - just over 100 miles last time and I was still loving every mile. :driving:
 
Hi Dave and welcome to the forum :driving:

Bet you're buzzing with your new car, I'm originally from Chesterfield, a village called Heath, now I'm over the border in Notts, so you're not a million miles away :driving:
