This car was bought new by my dad in Northern Ireland and was nearly going to be a pinky grey coloured one if it wasn't for my brother seeing it and refusing to ever use it (thank you little bro). It has been all over the place he has taken it to France, Holland, all over the UK several other European countries even drove it all the way to Eastern Germany where it was famous driving through Dresden with loads of people taking pics as it was the first right hand drive they had seen this was when I was working there for 6 months. With all this travelling it covered 198,500 miles and then he gave it to me as he was trading up to a new C5 estate with loads of toys and they wouldn't give him anything for it off the price of the new car even though it was the same dealer he bought it and had it serviced oh well there loss my gain.
That was Christmas 2011 (great gift don't you think) since then I have taken her to 205k miles and I have done a few jobs to her first was to replace the passenger side skirt that had gone missing. Next was to replace the heater fan control module thingy as that had packed in and that was a pain getting a new one from the dealer but its was great to have heat back lol. Apart from that its been wash and fill with diesel.

The future if the tyre problem isn't too much and make me sell her will include:-
- a good service soon
- replace the headlight that looks like it has over spray on it spare sitting here just need to swap
- Leather interior or replace the drivers seat base
- carbon fibre or matt black the vinyl the bonnet
- sort out a way to remove the chrome look to badges and trims
- oh and pile on the miles pizzahut and my business should help nicely
I will get some pics up as soon as I can find my cable to down load the pics
