Default Sorry - I'll Go and Wash My Mouth Out!

Sadly, my Rover 75's are not 100% reliable at the moment, work to follow soon.
I had to attend to my aunt up in Durham and therefore, I had to hire a car, and that's not the bad bit.

When I went out to sign for the car I was horrified - and I said to the guy delivering it
It's French!

Up to then, I had always said The only good thing to come out of France was the British Army

It was a Citroen, DS4 I think, six gears, diesel and white.

Having done around 700 miles in it, I found it to be the most economical car I've ever driven, plenty of power, and an ideal size for my venture with plenty of gimmicks that I still didn't master.................I'm going

And a reputation for updating parts during production and not recording which chassis they implemented the change!?!
