This afternoon I was coming out of a rather fancy shop and noticed, driving out of the car park, a Diesel H reg (that's 1990!) Citroen (something or other) and it was still going...
Not bad for 24 years old! It did look like the old couple had had it since new!
I think we will be fine....

I know what you mean Triple7 but I wouldn't want my car off the road (hassle) if something went wrong - no matter who has to pay for the repair.
At the beginning of next year I will be purchasing a 1 or 2 ear extension to my warranty. This car is to keep. I normally change every 3 years but not this one. And if I do change it will be handed down to my wife!

Personally SPL. Modern cars built today should not be kept. Manufacturers are keen to keep you for 3 years and IMHO design cars to be run for this period of time. Yes, they may well be better than that, but cars are now disposable objects with a shelf life. My LR FL2 is 5 yrs old in April, LR only offer a reduced warranty after this time. Why? Tells me all I need to know. So IMHO cars aren't lifers anymore. 10 years ago was the end of the over engineered, now they are built yo a certain cost, no more.

It does if it blows up with the wrong tyres on itÂ
thanks guys someone has to ask the bad questions, , but I have heard the macan engine is bombproof and it has been around in various audi models over 10 years with excellent reliability ,,
