Default Got another commuter hack to replace the A6

With the A6 now gone, I have a replacement car for medium distance commuting distances.

The car chosen is a Volvo S60 2.4 D5 SE Diesel manual, 2003 vintage with 163K on the clock. One owner car, with good history although it currently needs a service.

Extras are thin on the ground, but it does have full leather and the upgraded premium sound system with Dolby Pro Logic surround sound. Auto dim interior and external mirrors, and the shopping bag holder thing in the boot.

Took a while getting used to manual gears, having not driven one for a few years now.. Seemed to find myself in the wrong gear a few times, LOL.

Sadly it has one issue, leaking fuel injector seals on two of the five cylinders.

These are the dealer pictures.
