1996 Vauxhall Tigra review from UK and Ireland
"Good drive perfect ladies car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
O/s mirror keeps coming off.
And although been checked on numerous occasions the brakes still feel very spongy and sometimes un-safe.
Luckily my mechanic told me it was better to change my cam belt after 85,000 miles because chances being it would snap and on his advice fitted new one just in time.
The passenger door does not open or lock with the key.
These problems aside I find the car very rewarding and a good drive which looks very glamerous and corners very well.
The perfect ladies car.
