Suspension problems, keep breaking locally made engine foundations. Radiator cooling not good. Front seats are too close to dashboard.
Rides well at high speed. Good car to keep, but availability of genuine parts is a big concern.
Slow at pickup. in 2nd gear goes uptu 50kms speed.
Fuel average is reasonable. approx doing 12kms per litre.
I used to have a charade around 1980, and was looking for some more technical information.
In particular I would have liked info. or a link to original performance figures, speed for each gear per 1000 rpm, engine designation, bhp, torque figures etc.
I appreciate there must be spares problems because the car is now so rare, but good luck with this great little car - hope you can keep her going!
