    When we went to buy our D2, Leeanne said whilst we were at the TD5,, “I’m not listening to that noisy **** all day long,, Get the V8”.

    Oh God, I do love this girl

    I'd rather see a leaking FPR
    yes I would , I really would
    than hear the rat tat tat of a failed liner
    yes I would I really would

    I rather fix leaking injector washers and orings
    yes I would I really would
    than buy more bloody coils and leads
    yes I would I really would

    Oh the joys of owning a D2.
    With apologies to "I 'd rather be a forest than a tree"

    I only get 15l-18l per 100k so YES the V8 is thirsty But it is well worth it for that nice QUIET power and when I open the bonnet the engine doesn't smell like a fitters armpit either
