reverse gear

am loving my new disco that i tok delivery of on friday ... have 700kms on the clock already"!!Everything fine except im finding it quite difficault to put it into reverse - the gear stick is not 'slipping' into the R position easily and takes a good ole yank or two to get it a cross to the left and up to 'R' - is this normal i wonder or maybe i just dont have the D3 wrist action perfected yet

anythoughts Question

Craigs not wrong on that, I thought the same when I got mine, but after a couple of months it slips in like a good one. Very Happy

Sheep Question
 I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.
