1.6 or 2.0??
The 110bhp 1.6 Hdi are pretty nippy like.

Sorry yeah will more than likely be the older one, so the 2.0 90bhp.
I know rear axles are a main biggie.
I don't agree with the usual French-ness myself as ive had 4 French cars that were more reliable than the Vauxhalls ive had.

I had one a few years ago , was a great little car, had to replace afm and clutch but apart from that was fine, I got 80 miles to £10 of fuel out of it so wasn't too bad.

Used to have one, bottom pulleys like to go 70/80k nippy enough for a runaround like, check for matching front wings too, sounds silly but they have the wider gti front wings, normally get replaced with standard narrower ones if bumped

Sound will do ta.
Moved jobs at Xmas so instead of 6 miles a day, 30 a week for work it's now 24 a day so 120. Plus the driving about I do anyway, usually comes to around 250 a week so should save some penny's.
