Most probably, "The car was used for a LOT of city driving and the person didn't know how to downshift?" aka ID-10-T driver.

Well I picked it up at lunch today and had a looonnng drive back to the office

I quite enjoyed it. Given all of the other evidence the car is indeed only 22K KM old (delivery date was November 11, 2005... Possibly even at the 11th minute of the 11th hour). I suspect that it was a lot of city miles coupled with the dealer being cautious with a key safety feature like the brakes (and possibly compunded by the ID 1 OT driver... Reminds me of the "check driver light" in place of the check engine light. With cars getting smarter and smarter that can only be just around the corner

Well I have new pads and rotors out of the deal

I had read the ongoing "old" debate about cabin filters and was curious so I pulled off the glove box and there, staring at me was what looks like a relatively fresh cabin air filter. Another bonus. Life just doesn't get any better than this...

Looking forward to a long weekend. Toodles.
