My classic took a major ass pounding and i bought that for £3.2k.


Apart from Piston 3 being absolute choclate - worked on a couple and seen the damage first hand.

Not saying they are not decent cars, but i think something small and NA would be better personally speaking.

They are only as shit as people treat them - ie no, or low quality oil changes, warm up before serious throttle, just TLC really! Its not hard

Clio 172's can be had for under £3k these days, and are an ideal alrounder comprimise out of the box IMO .
