My QQ is OK - Woolly
I picked up my QQ 1.5 Pure Drive DCI Accenta in early August this year and have clocked nearly 3000 miles and so far not had any probs.
6 gears took a little bit of getting used to but soon got the hang of it.
6th gear 80mph all day if it could and approx 49 mpg ain't at all bad for the size of the car.
Hand brake now needs taking up a bit but thats no hassle.
Fold away for parking W/Mirrors are handy as I have seen what sloppy drivers can do.
Big W/Mirrors combined with the parking sensor are enough to get over the rear view, or lack of it.
Great chunky feel to it and doors that close with a clunk instead of like a tin can makes it feel real solid.
I am over 6 foot tall so hitting my head a couple of times on the tailgate makes me bend a bit more, problem solved.
The driving position is great for tall people with long legs so it suits me.
This is my first post so I would like to say hi to all car lovers and happy motoring.

No, we haven't, but Woolly's non-clickable link to what appears to be a watercolour painting of his car (and perhaps of himself too) has been lost PU.

Welcome Woolly. Very nice car. Very tasteful. Classy even. We look forward to hearing more about it in due course.

Glad you are pleased with it.

There are two links HB. One has a jigsaw puzzle of a QQ in a severed hand. The other is a watercolour (or whatever it is) in a frame. Chapeau!

Come on PU or Woolly, restore that one. Out of the ordinary run of pics we get here.

Sorry OP must re-post it - there were links everywhere (not his fault - for some reason they weren't working) Hair shirt being got out of the wardrobe.

For Pure Drive read "econetic" or "bluemotion" etc. Warm fuzzy feeling label indicating good fuel economy and low emissions. Or in the real world and more pertinently to many....lower BIK !

Thanks for the kind words everyone its nice to find a forum where you can talk about driving in general.
The drawing like pic is a photo of yes me and the motor with a bit of help from Adobe Photoshop Elements.
Anyone can take a photo,it's what you do with it afterwards is the clever bit.

Clever.

Glad you like the car. I've a 2.0 2WD Acenta CVT which I'm very pleased with.

I think the servicing looks a bit expensive but heigh-ho.
