"Excellent value for a first car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Brake disc and pads replaced at 12,000 miles (surprising).
Suspension problems after 20,000 miles.
Terrible wind noise, rattles.
Driver's seat had its springs popped out at 18,000 miles.
General comments?
Beautiful handling, gear change.
Let down by its old 1.3i engine.
Small rear space.
