240s rust, but other than that...no...everything seems to last well.

I've counted out the Audi 5-pot, as the S80 2.5D I tested was horribly unrefined at idle. I accept a diesel is likely to be a bit more vocal than a petrol, but this thing sounded like a London cab! If someone can prove to me that that S80 was a lemon, I'd be interested in looking at those cars.

cheers

James
