My brother 1.2 16V didn't used to hang around tbh. It wasn't fast when compared to scoobs etc, but as far as small hatches go, I thought it held up pretty well. My 1.2 8V on the other hand was total dog shit

Just realised why it was so sluggish! It had a restricter plate screwed to the floor, you can adjust it to how much you want to restrict it. I took it off an Wahay! there was life in the girl!
