My other car (an old Puma) got written off by someone pulling out on me on Sunday (no injuries, but both cars totally smashed up), then my dad informed me his neighbour was needing a quick sale on a 1.9 dCi and went to have a look and all seemed well at the time and got it for just £950 (I assume that is a good price?). It is on 105,000, bodywork and interior in good condition and had partial service history but a recent cambelt/water pump change and the guy had a lot of receipts for general maintenance carried out so seemed like a good deal.
Must say I have loved every minute of driving it, is ultra smooth and quite nippy, you don't even realise how fast your going a lot of the time! Certainly a comfy work cruiser.
Couple of niggles though, the 'Check Injection' comes on when starting from cold, but does not appear when starting from warm, guessing this is likely the glow plugs looking at other threads or could it be anything serious? Also my radio reception is terrible, even once I changed to an after market stereo, is this likely to be the ariel/ariel base or is reception generally terrible? All I can pick up is Heart FM and Jack the lad drives me mad
Lastly, can anyone link me to what stalk adaptor I will need to link up my JVC sterio to the steering wheel controls? Seen a few options for 2005!
Cheers guys
