I fancied a Diesel, but only had a small budget.

What's it like to drive?

Handles well, as do all 106's. Pulls well believe it or not. Not the quickest on the road but completely addiquit.

What's it like to park?

Hard to park with no power steering. Once on the move the steering is light thugh. Put a little extra air in the tyres, it helps.

Yeah. Leaking oil, from head. Head gasket replaced. Rocker replaced while head was off. Brake vacuum leaked oil so just sealed it. Starter is wearing...

What's most practical about your car?

Fuel economy! 65 mpg average for me if i drive conservatively.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Remote locking i think. Car is very basic apart from an airbag, theres not much to it.
