From: Harry Bloomfield on 26 May 2010 18:23 A 2004 facelift Connoisseur SE CDTI with most all of the options. It felt and looks a little smaller than my current motor, but then it is supposed to do 2.5x the mpg at motorway cruising speeds that my current one does. Mileage was a good bit higher than intended, but they seem to have been mostly motorway miles. Now I need a tow bar and electrics fitting. -- Regards, Harry (M1BYT) (L) http://www.ukradioamateur.co.uk

I'm sure that you wont be disappointed. You have the same year and trim level as mine (although mine is an estate). I had a towbar with a removable tow-ball fitted. I think it was well worth the bit extra to be able to remove it when not towing. Adrian will be very disappointed... -- Kev

Do you really think that the kind of teenage-boy stats better suited to a game of "Top Trumps" are the only difference between a mediocre car and a good one?
