Heating issues eh? Clutch i would of expected, french gearboxes & clutches seem to be made of cheese. Electrics can happen to any car I suppose, what sort went wrong?

Burning it.

My friend had a 106 XSi, the 1.4 one, it was a smokey old dog but it was fun.

Getting rid mate, cant be bothered fixing it now, needs a new cross member. Dont actaully like the car tbh, only like carabic blue if it has a GSI kit, which I dont have. And its a 1.2, fancy something faster.
