OK, so I'd like to get some advice from folks who know these cars better than I do (and I know pretty much nothing.)
I've just bought a 2013 HDi Sport with a manual trans. It was first registered in Ireland and was imported to New Zealand by its original owner when he emigrated a few years ago.
It's done 133,xxx km. Cambelt and tensioner were replaced at 128,xxx km along with an oil change. Looks like it has been regularly serviced at around 10,000 k intervals for most of its life.
Overall condition is pretty good, I had it inspected by the dealer before I bought it and they identified a couple of minor things that needed doing but nothing major.
So...if this was your car, what preventative maintenance would you do next? What needs thinking about? What obvious upgrades does everybody do? What are the common pratfalls?
All suggestions welcome and thanks in advance.
Michael.
