100000 miles and still going strong!

Post by Ralpharr2001 » Sat May 18, 2019 3:03 pm

I don't normally post much but thought hitting 100k was worth a post. Fantastic car and no problems whatsoever. DRC and gearbox are absolutely fine. The car is always serviced on time, without fail. So don't believe all the horror stories about reliability, they're not all true. I hope thats not the KOD (kiss of death!!) on reliability.

Good to see, you only hear horror stories and these cars are rare. If you get a drc fault get full coil overs and there is a company in Bristol that will do a swap for recon on the gearbox if needed.

Good to see

I think that may have been the one I nearly bought a while back it was around 80K at the time but was happy it had full service etc, couldn't quite convince the wife on the the color though (she pays half).

Plan on keeping mine for good, look forward to hitting that milestone myself.
