Default New 403 owner

My father once owned a 411 and he allowed me the priviledge of driving it
when I was 17 yrs old. A most memorable journey - not least because the
alternator was broken and we got stuck half way between Winchester and
Southampton.
Recently I had a brief love affair with an old XJS HE 5.3 but that caused me
no end of trouble, breaking down 13 times in one year, before being
converted to the security of Mercedes, and have driven an A Class, and later
a B class. My one concern with owning a classic was reliability, but as this
car comes with a new car warranty that doesn't appear to be an issue. I will
let you know as I get more accustomed to driving it - but my experience to
date has been over whelmingly good.
