I picked up my new oil burner the other day. Ordered it back at the start of April and finally took delivery of it last Thursday. It's turning out to be a neat little car. The 2 litre turbo diesel only makes 103 KW (which is pretty healthy for a turbo diesel) but it makes huge ammounts of torque 320NM which makes for some very satisfying acceleration.

It's deceptively quick and nice to drive, so far the wife and I are very happy with the new car.

I haven't snapped any pics of it but it looks like this:



Cheers
