Interior colour looks really nice. I have never seen one that colour before.<br>
Not sure where he got the idea that it was a 16v.

Maybe in the parallel universe where he lives but not here. 34.53 mpg to Le Mans and back two up, boot and back seat stuffed and towing a trailer. How do I afford it? <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>

I agree with you tinweevil on the economy point. I don't really get much difference between my sprint and 1850 if driven at the same speed. I guess the 1850 is working harder. The best way to get better economy is to drive slower, but where's the fun in that?<br>
