whats tax on one of those? £110 for a yeah, cost of an exhaust and Mot is not much, however, if it fails Mot and needs a load of work then it might not be worth it.......but if it does pass, cheap runaround

They are soooooooooo cool, i had one, not sporty in the slightest do about 100mpg, electrics sucked but reliable and simple to work on. Handling sucked but so tiny yet 5 adults would fit with ease!


I want another one and maywell get one as a runaround

If it passes ill buy it for 200

If I remember rightly I heard someone say that when you replace the exhaust you have to replace the whole of it as its a complete exhaust. (not 100% sure though)

I dont want to attract attention to myself with an exhaust

Just found out its a sporting model too, what extra bits do I get compared to the base model?

Hoping the exhaust can be patched up

MOT shouldn't be too much hassle hopefully, just had new brakes & tyres recently

a lot! sporting is top spec - electric windows, central locking, bucket seats, alloys, black, red or yellow paint, red strips on sides!, slightly sportier exhaust, sports suspension pretty quick engine too - and group 2 insurance i think!!!!

Hardest part was convincing my mum I need another car


I just told her now






She said its a good idea Probably so she can now at least say she doesn't have the gayest car in the household
