I have to admit it's really grown on me. The interior is very funky, with some fancy LED buttons which are very cool! Feels like a quality car too, decent plastics and what not. Comfy, and feels 'snug' too, if that makes sense?

On the road it's not too bad. Ours has the 1.6 petrol engine, which is alright, but feels like it needs another gear - only a 5 speed box, at 70-ish the engines doing just over 3500rpm, but it's got a decent stereo so you rarely hear it. Still gets around with no fuss though.

It's done about 2500 miles since new, and averaged just over 40mpg, which isn't bad at all considering it's done a lot of town driving as well as a few long motorway runs.

Got my truck back from being serviced this afternoon - the 72k all singing and dancing expensive one Shocked Anyway, all was good except for needing new front brake pads.

Also found out that it's already had its' EGR valve removed, which saves me a job Smile Darren

Started early preparations for the British entrant to the 2018 Winter Olympics 2 man Bobsleigh .....

Difficulties so far.....

1) One of them's a girl
2) Slight aerodynamic issues with current choice of Bob.....
3) Push starts proving a little tricky.... we can't get off the line yet
4) Steering and braking a slight issue but seeing as we can't get off the line yet.... we'll cross that bridge.

On a positive note, we don't anticipate any problems getting to the top of the run Mr. Green

well not in my Defender but for my Defender :

Ordered 4 x boosts with BFG ATs, a pair of side rail steps, mats and a cubby box from Paddocks this morning. The man said that only the Mantec one fits Pumas but from what I've read here the standard one will fit with a bit of fettling. Anyway it was only £ 35.

Hopefully it all gets delivered next Mon or Tues and I should be picking up what I hope will be the last car I buy for 20 years on Saturday week.
