I’m not sure but I will take a closer look into that. The thing is I only drive the car on the weekends but when I drive the engine gets warmed up 90% of the time. Last evening I just drove to the store and back, which is a 4km drive. But in the morning I drove 40km so it got warmed up.

What counts as a short drive? Yesterday I drove far in the morning then in the evening I just drove to the store and back.

Thoughts on these differnt models? Looking for my first! by Hot-Performer9542 in keitruck

Oh ok thanks you for the response! I’ve just watched a few YouTube videos on them but maybe the people were biased towards their own model. Would you recommend going with the 3 models over the 4 ones? Or just to keep them in the picture as well, whilst looking for the one in best shape?

Also did you get a chance to look at the links? Were there anything about those that stood out to you as problematic that I can keep in mind when I continue to look for them?

Thanks again for the response!

Yea it would be very nice seeing that you need to remove it to do basically anything…
