Hi All,
Have finally scratched the itch and bought myself a 2005 RR Vogue TD6. Collected the car on Monday and loving it! Has demanded some driving style adjustments as I have had performance cars for as long as I have been driving, and whilst it handles very well for a 2.5 ton house on wheels, it is hardly 'chuckable'!

Quite fancy doing the LR Off Road experience, but suspect the 20" wheels and tyres won't be much use so I might keep my eyes open for a cheap set of winter wheels.



Very happy with 27mpg average so far considering I have done very few long runs.

Managed 31mpg today on a motorway run at about 70mph! It has a tuning box which the vendor claimed was fitted for economy - can't say I beieved him but maybe he was right1

I was always told it was improper to talk about money in public but feel free to email me if you want any details!





Not many about with dark leather and with 2 young kids, a dog and mountain bikes, it had to be charcoal. The seats are quite amazingly comfortable and it has a real sense of occasion to it. The heated steering wheel was very nice this morning too!
