Ivor_E_Tower Posted February 23, 2005 Report Posted February 23, 2005 Auto boxes are variable - some are good, others bad. You need to take a test-drive and know what to look (and listen) for; not best for eBay purchases! Unless it appears to be a real bargian, and you can take out an independent warranty on it, best to buy locally and pay a little more if necessary. Quote
Guest ratherhaveanewone Posted February 24, 2005 Report Posted February 24, 2005 Factor in fuel consumption; if your used to a manual diesel than a 2.3 auto is going to come as a bit of a rude awakening. Check out the published mpg before you buy, I didn't ! John Quote
