Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
I should have kept it for a year and then got rid! Due to the age, a lot of things needed replacing - clutch, brakes, exhaust, cambelt, battery etc. All adds up (to more than it was worth). Also minor things like leaky sunroof and broken C/L. last thing to go was gearbox
What's most practical about your car?
Removable rear seats
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
adjustable intermittant wiper.
