Only for the fact that my V is an unreliable pig, I'd take some bits of you for sure.
What's wrong with yours?

My 850TDi is by far and away the most reliable car I've ever bought - they just don't go wrong!

Irony:
I spent £10k on a nice V8 XC90 for the family for Christmas.
The missus doesn't like it and refuses to drive it.
I'm currently sat in the middle of football traffic awaiting recovery because it's broken down.

Wouldn't have happened with my 850!
