Hello people,just checking in as a newbie. I recently purchased a j plate 2.0 gli as a runabout but found that i actually quite like it and it's a far better car than i'd expected! This has kinda kick started an interest in carltons so i'll be sticking me nose in here a bit from now on :-)

Greetings from south Wales. Welcome to the wonderful of TC.
Where are you from? Any pics of the car? The natives on here like to peruse over a pic of a Carlton or two!
I was like yourself back in 2008. I bought my first Carlton, a J plate Diplomat as a stop gap until I could get hold of another Volvo 740 estate. I loves them old Volvos. Cut a long story short, the car became part of the family, so when a dopey reverend ran into the side of it, I had no hesitation in buying another Carlton. Forgot all about buying a Volvo now I have my Carlton estate.
If you need and help or advice with your Carlton, this place is invaluable!
