"For a low running cost second family car, in diesel form it is hard to beat"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Both rear brake cylinders went together.

Throttle cable snapped.

Gear linkage broke.

General comments?

A comfortable, reliable car which is cheap to run. Easy to work on, excellent dealer services, a real workhorse with the diesel engine.

I agree. I've owned mine now for about 6 months, and the only problem I've had so far, is knocking drive shafts due to the rubber boots slipping off and letting the grease out. Other than that, absolutely fine. Also, the car does an outstanding MPG, 60+ to the gallon!. Even with hard driving I still manage to get 50+. Only gripe is that it's a bit slow, acceleration is sluggish if you don't ride out the gears to their full potential. But, for a small diesel engine, it certainly does the job.
