3rd Time Lucky
Picked up the new 110 on Monday, very happy so far. It has none of the glitches the other ones had, panel fit and alignment is all spot on, no clonks from the handbrake (even after a 200 mile motorway run). Generally seems much better put together. Maybe the 2009MY has at last been sorted Smile

One little thing is that there is a pretty loud whine from the transmission when lifting off the gas and slowing from speed, not really fussed about it just wondered if is common as my other ones didn't do this? Andy

Mine has the same whine - my dealer says its fine but will look at it if it gets worse. My mate has a 130 DCC and he has the whine the same and he has now done 43,000 miles with no issues. Mine is a late 2007 car.

Thanks, will leave it be. The rest is all good so far so don't want to start messing with it! Andy
