10,000 of trouble free motoring - how are you guys getting on?

My tyres don't have long left in them to be fair 

Just the one issue really and it was my boot catch needed replacing ive done 12k now, very happy with it runs like a dream 

Replaced front tyres but the engine is sweet, it just gets better by the day really .

PS also had to replace a bulb.

I have 18k on the clock and the Bridgestones on the front still dont need replacing yet? I am quite impressed with them.

In the year that we have owned ours, no mechanical problems at all.
Need to get a misalligned bonnet sorted and the centre caps replaced as, they are peeling, when she goes in for a service next week.

Two things:

1. Electric mirrors not folding or folding intermittently on reverse (as per the luxury pack).
2. Steering wheel play (not as precise as when bought).

9,100 miles on the clock.

I get this strange nagging sound coming from the passenger seat area quite often.




Mind you that continues when I get indoors......



Apart from that, nowt. Nothing I've noticed anyway.

I get that too. Especially at certain speeds on private roads when the needle approaches 2 o'clock. I later discovered the needle is visible from the passenger seat at this point and this seems to trigger the effect you mention.

Talking about effects, I have constant complaints from the ladies that they cannot get out of the front bucket seat easily. I was too kind to tell them they were overweight and had fat arses. 
BTW, they simply adore my knob.

No faults as such, she had an annoying rattle from the drivers door during the first month of ownership but that disappeared pretty quickly.

I just love this car and find myself making excuses to go out for a drive, each time I clamber behind the wheel I get a huge smile on my face.

The bridgestones have 9500 miles on them now and the tyre fitter reckons they are good for another couple of thousand, so really quite chuffed.

Nearly 25K in mine and its not skipped a beat. Its certainly been the best car I've ever owned.

Faults - rear fog light covers missing.

Annoyances - headlight washers and DRLs, both switched off.

Otherwise an absolute joy
