It shocked a few folk...people assumed it would be slow because it was a poncey colour

Cost - 18mph on £1 /ltr is the only sore part.

Upkeep - Only bits I had to replace in 18 months were radiator & coil pack to 1 side

All in all not bad for a 10yr old car.

Its still going strong & over 100k now

Don't get a corsa mav

Get something bigger and better it'd be a step down from the t4, get an imprezza or something else jap

I know what your saying Tom, step backwards but this car would only be for me really...Nipping about maybe odd track day too Adam....And the handling

Just ideas at moment, few things to sort out in next month or so....

Thing is not wanting to take finance or loan so budget striaght cash would be about the 4 maybe 5k mark.

Would still be my daily driver too and family car used for exactly that..

Liking the Ibiza Cupra option..

In my eyes and my opinion only old scobbies = £££££ to fix/repair/run, maybe i'm wrong as colin said never had to spend much on his...

Dunno Adam I know what your going to say but I just like them for what they are!! UK car & I prefer the styling

Price - ok theres a couple grand to save getting an import on whats basically the same car, but Id prefer a UK with history I think & a little model No plaque

DCCD thingy - nae chance i'll know what to do with that!! Id be better without
