Holding onto the gears and more of a deeper sound from the engine is what seems to be when its taking place. And that horrible burning smell through the vents when stationary.

I took it for a good 35 minute test drive too before I bought, and bar some wheel balancing in the front left it's perfect.

I don't normally run the tank below quarter but the last two times ran it till the light came on and was still only €56 to fill. Just looking back and the end of Jan I put the exact same volume of fuel into the tank and it cost just under €68 that's a fair difference.

This guy: Severe lack of parking spaces in this area, and the city council builds a completely useless piece of footpath.
