    It had about 1,000 klms on it from the dealer when I took it. So I guess you've gotta assume it had been driven hard in those early klms. Either by prospective customers or the sales manager taking...

    Another thing... my car was an ex-demo. It was a demo for about 1-month before I bought it. I wondered if this might be a left-over from being flogged hard when it was a mere baby.
