lol yes ok smile

It wont be long now.

And, yes it`s a well made car, I had a 5 door Sri for 3 years, but somehow, this seems better, perhaps cause everything is tighter. My old one had done 26000, not a lot for 3 years motoring.

I drove one of these today - the A/C compressor did an impression of a 1950s tractor. Was this one broken or are they supposed to sound like that? :s

It was from national car rental...

Must be something wrong, the only noise I hear is from the blower
