I considered selling it to a workmate for $1. He needs a second car. He bought a 220D brand new in 1973 (or so) and drove it for 19 years. He's older than me, a really nice guy, has a LONG commute to work and continue putting crap in the tank and continue the experiment...but I think I will just use it for these terribly short commutes, esp when it is -5 C like this morning. THe SD doesn;t even get up to temp in 6 blocks - BAD, BAD, BAD. Chris
