1997 Vauxhall Tigra Coupe review from UK and Ireland
"A fantastic coupe with a beast of an engine ready to be unleashed by the right driver!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The brake pads needed replacing recently.
New cam belt was fitted.
Nothing out of the ordinary for this sporty little number.
General comments?
Although the suspension makes the drive a little bumpy, it's what you expect for a small sports coupe.
This car is the best I've ever had and gives the speed without the high insurance.
It's curvaceous without being ostentatious, although it's 4 years old it doesn't look outdated and stands out from the crowd in a big way.
