There shite, apparently commonly leak and the build quality is really poor
What about a 306, similar size

and the build is quite good

Is that a Kseries?? The kseries is prone to blown head gaskets, and can be pricy to fix. Steering and handling is ok, but the dash is just plain nasty.
Panels are pretty well put together. Also paint can be a bit shocking

well i had none stop probs with mine.

its nice to drive and i am gonna miss the looks i get
and its not that slow for a 1.8.
i keep with a m8s 1.8 hgt punto when moveing.
and i also got pulled at 104 so am more than likely gonna get points and probly a ban soon nuff
