Wait for all the 'buy an XUD' posts. Wink

This coming from the person who would find a problem with a brand new Rolls Royce Phantom,  hand finished in the trim of your choice, with free fuel for life!

If you're paying Phantom prices, too right you should be fussy! Tongue

Up until 2 weeks ago I was doing 45 miles a day in my 306 HDi and it lapped it up, no sweat.

Cambelt recently done, serviced properly, shouldn't let you down. Like others have said, look after it and it will look after you. They're also great fun to drive on a B-road which is the main attraction over any other >10 year old diesel hatch.

PS. Mine is for sale as I now have a company car :p
Disclaimer: The above is not to be taken to heart and is probably a joke, grow up you big girl.
