There has been little problems with the car with the exception of new battery's being required mainly due to lack of use.
New battery in 2001.
New battery in 2003.
New battery in 2005.
Rear wheel brake seized at 3500 miles.
No other problems to date.
The car is only used as a bit of summer fun and garaged the rest of the time.
The drive is excellent fun and it is a blast flying around the country lanes.
The ride is very firm and as I'm over 6 feet tall I do find it a bit cramped on longer journeys.
I always service the car fully every year even though it only does a few hundred miles a year and never comes out in the rain. This has proved a good way to keep the car reliable.
These must be the most fun things on four wheels that I've ever driven it will always make you smile and people always comment on my little red devil.
I still own this car and it has now covered only 4,500 miles and is still proving to be very reliable on the rare occasion that it gets used. The only thing that I have noticed is a small piece of rust on the drivers door (which is odd as the car is never used in the rain and never has been). I will be having a new door skin fitted in 2008 to keep it all mint.
Above all been a wonderfull car over my 9 years of ownership and it still makes me smile when I drive it. Also, I seem to get a lot of nice comments on the car, which is nice.
