Default 19 years Old Today

On the 30th June 2000 my 2.5 litre V6 rolled off the production line at Cowley.



I have owned the car for seven and a half years now and we have covered around 35,000 miles together.

A few firsts for me as it was the first time I bought a car blind on eBay, but I really wanted that colour and specification, a Connoisseur SE with a sunroof and a manual box.

It was also the first time I got involved with a car forum.
Another first was that it was the first time ever that I have cleaned an engine bay on a car, so I can blame you lot for that.



I am really happy with my car.

With the forum, I have made some friends and sadly lost some, too.
Thanks guys, it has been a pleasure.
