...of day one.
The cleansing has yet to start.
And the wife still speaks to me!

Looks like a good straight car and in a nice colour that suits the Xm's lines well.

I see the glove box strut holds the lid open well - these usually lose their gas and
struggle to hold any weight - does this mean though the plastic handle/lugs holding
the lid shut is broken as these are quite feeble/fragile?

Additionally, a poor earth or worn wiper switch could be responsible for the non
parking wipers if it wasn't you switching the ignition off in mid swipe!!

Watch your Missus doesn't take a shine to it, as you'll be looking for another one
for yourself as these are comfortable and reassuring cars to drive and the womenfolk
do take to them well!!

The glove box shuts alright, I was just in the process of cleaning out the car.
The wipers also work perfectly, just me switching off too quickly!
Things that don't work are one of the rear windows and the front armrest that's loose
There's also a small dent in the rear door, you can just see it.
Will all be sorted soon, I want it to be perfect.
No worries on the wife front, she's always initmidated by the cars I buy; too quick, too big, too old, etc.
