We had one for the missus for about 2 years. Not a bad lil car, but pretty slow and very thirsty. was only getting about 50miles to a 10er.

Watch for stemed up headlamps, common as fuck. Mine had both rear calipers seize within 2 weeks of each other.

And other common thing is something to do with cats breaking up and dropping bits into engine, and fucking them, might be worth a google, as i cant remember exact about that.

My missus has one, Not had any problems in the year that she's had it. Headlight is starting to fog up but thats all. Loves to get sideways on the roundabouts too

Couple of pics of hers.
