Righto.

Just looked at the service record and Citroen checked the level in May '18 at 136k miles, its done 7k since by what I considered, when buying, a fairly good if 'demanding' driver.

As for AdBlue and it being mainly being cowpee, well manufacturers will have to find a substitute for that too then when cattle farming gets banned by Eco&VeggieManiacs. See the story about the new fashionista head of Goldsmiths College today, she's banned beef on the campus. Previously she flew to China of all places on a regular basis for... fashion?! She's worried about the UKs CO2 output though. Couldn't make that up.

AJ, in my defence:

a) You had a tight schedule to catch your ferry...

and

b) It was my last chance to drive that wonderful car!

My usual driving style achieved around 59 - 60 mpg in that big old girl so I wasn't too demanding. I'll take it as a compliment anyway :lol: :lol:

Hope you are still enjoying the ride!
