"Fast, cheap and feels it"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Electric windows - faulty.

Heater squeaks like mad and drives you crazy.

Wheel bearings need replacing.

General comments?

The car is frighteningly quick off the mark. Beats all the Nova boys especially the sad 1.4SR.

The car as standard looks good and the 0-60 time with some mods should be sub 9 seconds. Not bad for a car that cost only £900

Handling is not bad but needs to be lowered for ultimate cornering.

Build quality lets it down as it feels like it's been glued together.

Use WD40 on the heater blower motor to stop the squeaking noise. My AX GT 500 is better than Hans' Beemer 318 coz it's faster and has got a leather interior.

My car is now starting to splutter now. Especially below 3000rpm. I think it could be that the carb is blocked up with carbon.

I am now looking for a rare white AX GTI. I own a 89 black GT and although it looks smart, you cannot beat a white one.
