Purchased Sep 2003, sold Feb 2004
I bought this car back in September from a guy in Berkhamstead for £330. He was
an enthusiast and had decided to keep the better of the two he had.
The worst problem with this car was the fuel consumption which was just scary!
I think the official figures said something like 25mpg but in reality it was
10-20mpg when not being driven hard! i did manage to get 29-30mpg out of
it on a motorway journey if I didn't accelerate at all!
It was very comfy inside though, as it had leather seats and there was loads
of space. All the electric bits were good to play with as well!
When the MOT and Tax ran out I didn't bother renewing them and i took it off
the road with the intention of tidying up the body and paint a bit. I did
sort out the bits at the bottom of the rear window pillars with some fibre
glass & some filler. But i took about a month 1/2 to do it and had got bored
by the end, so only one side got finished.
This ended up on eBay a few weeks ago and went for £260 which was good
considering it had no MOT or Tax and that the power steering pipe has burst.
