In the 14 months since I bought it, it has only had one oil leak from the filler cap.
I bought this car second hand in Sep '96 and I did about 17,000 miles from then until Sep '97. It currently has 80,000 miles on the clock and the only thing to have gone wrong is one small oil leak: which I fixed by tightening a screw! The reliability is very good, the running costs are very good (approx 45-50 miles/gallon). Of course being a diesel means it's no F1 car but having said that, the acceleration isn't bad. Down sides - noisy (diesel), comfort could be better, needs power steering.
I find it hard to get into gear, do you know if its hard to fit a new clutch,
regards, tommy.
