The car was quite rusty underneath when I purchased it, so I had to replace the whole exhaust at 70,000 miles.
The back brakes leaked and I had to replace them at 75,000 miles.
I had a major problem with the leaky sunroof. I had to re-seal it, but the damage had been done! Seals inside were eroded and screws were rusty. Every now and then I get a leak in the roof which is an ongoing problem until I get it fixed properly.
Drive shafts are on their way out (but I guess that is to be expected due to the age and mileage of car)
Despite this, the car is reliable and handles nicely.
I do a lot of miles in this car and it's a real work horse!
The driving position is a little uncomfortable, but its only a small car anyway.
The car is getting older now so I expect things to go wrong with it.
It is very much - what you see is what you get! But I'm happy with it.
How funny that my car has had all three of those problems. Right now dealing with the sunroof which has created a lovely paddling pool for my passengers!!
