New - at White House Lodge, Kent.
We bought the car knowing that we would be doing many trips from the south east of England to Skye, and wanted a comfortable, spacious and economical cruiser for the job. And it did the job superbly well. There were invariably our two dogs in the back, the rear seat was piled with luggage and other oddments, and we travelled smoothly in front. The diesel fuelled car regularly returned around 50mpg.
Now, with just under 130,000 miles on the clock, and the ravages of life in Skye weather and roads beginning to show a little, the old barge is becoming a bit of an old banger, but as it keeps passing its MoT test, and continues to run reliably, there seems no point in changing it. It still has its original battery, too!!
