Congratulations!
Still looking, myself... though for an HDi.
Having to be patient, though - haven't seen one round here that you can test drive without agreeing to buy it first!

Slight delay in picking her up, both mine and the partners who to lives went nuts, so had to push it back a week I had to put a deposit it down, but if I'd walked away if have got it back obviously
Thanks tho, shall let you know next weekend

Considering a road trip to look further afield, myself.
Awful weather though... We are more used to dry roads in East Anglia!

Arrgg, I'm having to be patient too, dealer is changing the timing belt for me so delayed till next weekend (more money in the bank, maybe more on the deposit? ). Yeah, I had to put a bit down in advance but t would've been returned if I hadn't completed sale. At this point we were "I'm buying it, unless we drive it down the road and it's unmanageable or there's something horribly clanking/banging etc?, I'm buying it!!".
On the subject of dash cams, how important is a rear one, seems to be jumping the price (fair enough, it is a whole other camera), but also quite severely limiting my options in makes/models,
