154 thou on the golf when it finally died. Only two months before it would happily tow another 1.8 golf behind at 90 down the a21 so 125 on a 52 is nothing!

Villian, where was that Volvo advertised?

I'll buy it and sell it on based on the prices I have seen on autotrader! Could be a good purchase! (may even share the profits!!!)

I hope your religious, you will need lots of praying to hope the electrics last and don't go back into euros mode!  also nothing switches off when it goes kaput, you know when it happens cos you can't start the car again, my dads now has an on/off switch by the ciggy lighter

If the road is wet and puddles have formed switch of the cruise control!
(not that you get much of a chance of turning it on nowadays)
Cruise control doesn't understand the principles of aqua planing and neither do I but it can end up as a horrible mess and your priced boat could look like a piece of road kill.
