Exhaust fell off the car on the way back from London at 80,000.
Used to cut out for no apparent reason, got the carb cleaned at 95,000 which fixed it.
New spark plugs at 96,000.
New tyres at 98,000.
A very quick car, a lot quicker than my last car, a Nova 1.3.
Top end speed does suffer a bit, level 5 insurance group so it is a bit high on the old insurance.
I do at least 500 miles a week in this car, it is company owned but I bought it off the company cause it is a gem to drive.
Very comfy seats, excellent ride handling (possibly something to do with the extra wide tyres).
Always rips apart my mate's Peugeot 106 1.0.
Always a good car, had one as my second car. Actually quite under-rated. If you want a little more poke, fit some bosch super 4 plugs. They genuinely do make a difference!
Really not sure about the quick bit though! There again nowadays I have a 2.3t saab 9000 kicking out 250bhp :) )
I had one of these for 2 1/2 years. I did 50,000 miles in it and sold it for only £250 less than I paid for it! You can't get much better than that!!
The quick bit actually means 0-30, up to 60 it is bout 14-16 seconds.
