	i bet a grandad would dream of a nice 1.0 runner. I used to love my 1.0, i used to laugh at all the other people with big litres who had to visit the petrol station all the time. Far better to have a 1.0 as a run around an a better car for "sunday's best" if you get what i mean

I think the vaux engines run very smooth, when i got the pug i was like erm its runs abit rough like. The fact that the word dream and 1.0 are in the same context :\|

	mine doesnt give me trouble anymore, it did when i first bought the car, but spent almost 900 on the whole car and its been runnin like a dream since. i like the way the car runs, admited i would like a faster car but right now theres no need for it. that and i cant afford the insurance due to the crash.

	my brother has the same prob, weve been stripping his down wiv a friend. weve found that the tensioner is shot... making it click and missfire. you have to basically dismantle the left side of the engine.(looking from from) you will need a compressed air gun to remove the fooking crank bolt

	hello, my 1 litre is basically f**ked! :( had the car given to me but its sounds like my old fiesta. TAPPETS! surely a vauxhall dont have tappets! when i start it up, the car makes a 'dry and slow' tapping noise for a second then goes into a fast tapping motion. once i start accelerating, the car makes a faster tapping noise then stops bout 10mph. but sounds awful stationary! took it to vauxhall they say its my camchain. took it to the AA/Halfords Garage and they say they did a cam chain and it sounds different to that and that its somethin else. does anyone know what it could be?????? :rolleyes: ollie :wave:
