Paid £1400 for a '93 with 90,000 miles. Expensive, but worth every penny.

Expensive on parts and petrol if you drive it hard.

On the road
Driving
Great drive, very fast 1.5. Quick on corners and brilliant on traffic lights.
Performance
For a 1.5, the drive is superb. Brilliantly performance, keeps up well with a 1.8 Ibiza turbo. 125mph top.

Living with it
Reliability
Never fails to start but once driven hard it still drives super.
Image
Nice standard, lovely paint. Get 17"s, lower, colour coding and tints. That's all you need. Proper head turning car.
Comfort
Not too homely cs of the middle dash (under the head unit). Can be modded though.
