Just caught up with this thread now. Great read and kudos doing your own maintenance. Strong mileage but guess the engines are built for it! Sure the new owner whoever that is will be delighted!
Megane and Jag still about also a nice Volvo S60R. I left my details for the 182. Never know! Guy said it's Turbo'd and the owner won it on one of these auction/draw set ups. In as it's running rich.

Looked at a Volvo V60 Polestar Engineered on Friday, very nice...
