Birthday check (100.000 KM - 62137 miles)
Dear Friends
I'am very proud to tell you that yesterday I have reached without particular problems 100.000 Km with my Puma '08, my Landy is like a good scotch whisky as time pass she improve also the fuel cosumption is now much better.
To celebrate this milestone I want to make her a good check as present (oil etc etc) considering that I have no the knowledge as well the place to do it myself, what I have to tell the mechanic to check?

Thank you

Hello and welcome. I think Lake Como is a beautiful lake and the surrounding countryside.

Have a look here for the Puma service sheet.

How nice to hear your good news about Puma reliability and longevity - congratulations. Sensible to celebrate with the reward of a thorough check up too, I'm guessing that you don't suffer as much as UK owners from the dreaded rust issue.

I've been to Como a couple of times and stayed there for the Grand Prix at Monza and agree that it's a beautiful place (that George Clooney chap has a small shack there I understand)

Sitting on the terrace of the Grand Victoria Hotel in Varenna as the sun sets and the moon rises over the lake with a glass of local wine on a warm summer evening is very difficult to beat in my opinion ! Magical.

I love the Italian Lakes BM52

Wow thank you guys I'm honoured that so many people like the place where I live, yes Varenna is a great place.
If you want to come during this season the lake is very romantic all woods are becoming gold and red, the lake is a mirror and reflects all colors in the water, and a little mist is present in the morning to be send away by the sun during midday, is very romantic specially if you are sweet harmony with a nice girl eating a nice glass of wine.

but also England is a romantic and nice place!, a travel in a beautifull english country or may be in the beautifull Cornwall admiring the north sea smoking my pipe, or drinking a good single malt on the scottish island toghetr wit a freckled redhead! Nice!

I never been in Cile but I a visit to this region and specialy to Capo Horn is on my agenda!

In the next day I will post the commemorative picture that i take to my tachi meter when I have reached 100.000 Km
