well my mam and dad have a 1.6 megane CC and its had a new engine, still been back to the garage 3 times

I love the look of a Dark blue punto sporting on the 17s

Fabia I like the interior, but the rest is a bit bland

wich is the quickest?

I know a guy on a bike forum that will do a full comprehensive vehicle check and report for £10. You just paypal him and he emails the results back asap. He's got good feedback from established forum members.

from my experiences, not as well as the 106, but better than the leon.

you also dont shit yourself as much as you do in the 106 especially in the wet lol

considering its weight up front and torque through the front wheels its incredibly easy to get lif toff oversteer, had it sideways round a roundabout the other day, and it was perfectly controllable
