Purchased As Used

I bought my Caliber in June '09.It had 6,400 on the clock..I now have 12,000 on the clock..Has anyone found that the engine seems to have come alive around 11,000miles..My car feels much faster..It pulls away at the lights very fast. leaving the Renaults, Fords, Seat and Vauxhall's at the lights.I'm not racing anyone I'm just touching the accelerator!!! I have the SXT trim with the CVT gearbox.I use my Caliber daily..on trips round town..it never fails me..and after owning PT cruiser's and Grand Voyager's..I am very impressed with the Caliber..I had my first service done and it only cost me £170..not sure what that is in US dollars but our local Dodge dealer said they had dropped the prices..which were good to hear!!.The only gripe I have is that the Caliber does not like going around UK roundabouts..on the motorway it has ample power for overtaking and plenty of power for round town and I find it handles well on our "country roads"..I just wish more ppl in the Uk would realise that Dodge is a great brand and that the Ford Focus is not the be all and end all of cars!! Rock on DODGE!!!!
