Looking to get a new car and these seem quite well priced at the minute. I only really like the black or red ones. Has to be 3 door aswell. Not too conserned about power (1.7 or 1.9).
Found this one.

I think its a tad over priced but when looking arround cant really find alot better priced with the x pack.
Anybody own one or got any experience with them?

Definitely overpriced, the 1.9's apparently have swirl flap problems but can be mapped to increase power and torque by a fair bit, dont know what effect this has on the gearboxes?

the 1.9s are brilliant cars to drive really powerfull yet smooth n eco if u take it steady, my mates got 1 n with just a panel filter n map its gone from 150 bhp to 195 bhp lol
ive heard the 1.7's suffer headgasket and water pump problems alot though
they do tend to be expensive with the x-packs on as u said
