Bought her from Stratstone in November 2012, they dropped the price by about £1400 due to their "cheapest car in the area" price promise. That was down in Birmingham, but i got local dealer to get it up here, so all in all i was happy 
05/05 TD4 in Cairns Blue, SE spec, so, CD changer, full heated leather, powerfold mirrors, glass sunroof, heated windscreen (never had one before, will never not have one again!).
It came with 17's, but with dodgy chinese kwik fit special summer tyres on, it was November, so needed to move fast! Bought some 16's from a guy in Perth, who just happened to be driving past me 2 days later so he dropped them off...5 wheels, 1 with a brand new Synchrone (this will be for sale in a weeks time), a couple of Scorpion STR's and a couple of Michelin Latitude's. I kept the Scorpions and sold the Latitude to a guy from LandyZone.
Ended up selling the 17's for more than i paid for the 16's, so was mighty happy. Bought 2 new Scorpion's for the rear's, and i was happy. I live on a building site, so proceeded to find every bit of mud i could find to play in!
Christmas came, and so did a black nudge bar, paid something like £25 for it from Craddock's, they're now £155, work that out?!
Came into its own in 6-8 inches of snow in January, life saver
And now we're at today, it hasnt changed, except its been used as a commercial for the past 2-3 months, the back seats have been permanently folded forward!
I do have on order though, for delivery from tomorrow onwards...
AlliSport hose kit (2 of mine are leaking, so might as well replace all 3) with EGR blank
Spacers
5x 225/75/16 Cooper Discoverer AT3, £474 for the lot, and a tenner a corner to fit at a friendly garage i know2 Scorpions and a brand new Synchrone will be up for sale next week.
Lift kit, 40mm, bought off ebay, to use as a template, fit it for a bit til i get my own made then sell it on and get some money back
Not to mention the parts i have in development
