General comments?
I got this car as my 1st car I paid £550 for a Si after seeing them going for about £800 at the time of getting it. After buying it I realised why that was £550. the clutch went 2 weeks after getting it, when it was having it fitted I found out two CV boots where knacker-ed and needed replacing. the head unit wasn't wired in to anything thankfull a quick ebay lot sorted that out, only the drivers door opened so I replaced all the locks. I've spent around 800 on it just to get it back to its former glory, but its worth it all just for the grin factor as you pull off from the lights killing the Saxo and Corsa brigade. and for a 90bhp engine its good for 125mph which has been seen (thankfully the plod were busy). the only thing I wish I had was the electric pack which it looks like the car had at one point as it has ABS and the electric boot release button, but does nothing after changing the locks so I've removed it and wired the panic button from my alarm into the hole. the seats are gr8 for hugging you as you chuck the car in to the bends. insurance can be steep as I bought it I was 18 in a medium crime zone with a provision cost me £2200 TPFT after a year NCB its now £1100 which is nice.
