Cool 3 and a half weeks later....

And I've reached 1270 miles today!!

Juts in time to be able to thrash it down to London from Blackburn tomorrow without having to keep an eye on the rev counter!

Really starting to feel like the car is mine now - found me a nice comfortable position and getting to know it like the back of my hand. MPG getting better also.. The steering is still a bit stiff though, anybody else found that?

And what else can i say - I love the Dooper!!!

Aye but yours has been in the garage quite often hasn't it!! Is it all sorted now? I've not even had it a month yet and I've done 2000 miles. Aah well that's why I bought a Dooper!!

Steering still a bit stiff though????

Went back in for a total of 7 days But all seems to be ok with it now! I hit 2k today

The steering is different to the ONE D though, so maybe your still getting used to it

Steering is a bit stiff, I'm on 4000k now and the car is loosened up. The gearbox is nicely run in, all I need to do is change the oil...but not sure if it conflicts with my TLC??
