Good on you.

Hope they have sorted the anti roll bar bushes and electric window motors.

Got the Black one, prefer Black, Manual 6 speed (had auto previously) I'm sure they did sort out Anti Roll bar bushes a while ago, great drive but I did put £70 (55 litres) worth of V-Power Nitro deisel in it, it has the new step In it, a little extra allowing full foot on step and vastly improved casing.
