I've been driving the wife's Seat Ibiza, which is a good old fashioned diesel ie. no turbo, no torque, no power etc. And I've grown to quite like it in its friendly, chuggy chattery kind of way.

The rate that fuel prices are going up it'll be a Smart for me next time.

The Peugeot specialist has followed Peugeot's latest and greatest advice which is to retro fit a solid flywheel and a torque damping (normal) clutch to reduce subsequent claims.

I drives fine, but there a little bit of harmonic vibration at full throttle below 2000rpm.

Hopefully this will reduce the risk of further problems - something I like as the warranty expires in July.

I know - I tried one an Roundswell Toyota, Barnstaple whilst staying with in-laws over Xmas.

The Avensis 2.2 is a beast - stacks of go.
