no service yet, coming up at 18k as ive not passed 2yrs with it yet, im hoping will get a bit more after it.
ah good, thought it was something wrong with it.
um quite a few short journeys... it seems to be running smooth as i can tell, although ive never had another car the same to compare it with... hear a bit of a ticking on idle but i dont know if thats normal or not?
