After the horror run with my first and last diesel the GU. I was a bit hesitant to go and get another one. I just feel comfortable with petrol motors, I understand them better and they just feel right, to me anyway.
Must admit I LOVE driving it.. rides so smooth and goes like a cut snake.
Cheers Stefan

They can bag us paj drivers all they want.. it won't make us change our minds! she has proved herself more than capable to me and has even showed up a nissan or two for being able to go with ease where they didn't have it quite so easy and left them saying they were suprisingly impressed!
