Cheers all,

I know the diesel isn't everybody's cup of tea.  For me it was to save a few quid on company car tax and fuel costs.

I'm not fussed - This is my 4th car since passing test in 2005, the previous 3 being a 1.4 Clio, 1.6  8v Astra and 1.6 Zafira so in comparison to my previous cars the GTD absolutely flies.

I'll get it washed over the weekend and post some pictures.

I use a couple of guys who've set up a valeting service on the forecourt of a closed down garage near me. OK, they use Brillo pads and washing up liquid, and they don't speak much English, but they're cheap  :evil:
