the cars are reliable apart from the gearboxes, apart from that weakpoint, the engines are strong

no car should be RAGGING for 70k
and even if there are thats stil not the best, all im sayin is i dont know many people how can back them up and say over the time they have had one they havent thrown money at it even though there good cars when there running a.ok

my point was that if you give it a hard time they should last 70k's if you drive it normally a good chance longer
