Good Points

As a modified car it is probably one of the best for anyone who wants to try out in the world of car modifications, but set up right this car is capable of doing 0-60 in 7.5 second with out spending too much money. for example putting an induction kit which provides the right air feed and an exhaust system that forces the emissions out quick and putting a sports cat on finishes of the wonder, that makes this little car fun to drive round in. As a wonder I used oz titans superlagera alloy light weight with toyo poxies t1s tires . Superb for handling and so many engine modifications are out for this car which can make it capable after spending around £3000 to be faster than many super cars even retaining the 1.6 8v engine.


Bad Points

Well really the rear torsion bars are a pain to adjust and having to do this numerous times just so I could get the suspension set up which was 50mm lowered at front and 80 mm at the back. to achieve the phenomenal speed with out spending a fortune on forged pistons and upgrade crank and cam pully etc just weight reduction is the only option but it wouldn't matter cause the 80mm drop would of had the back end sitting on the floor if there were to be any passengers in the back, and having to be careful on speed bump because the government doesn't seem to know what else to spend taxpayers money on. The stock suspension makes the cornering really poor so not recommended for people who just wants to buy one and do nothing with it.


General Comments

A great car to buy but highly recommended for people who want to build a good handling street car, and is not too bad on insurance.

But overall brill car I'm still mad I have lost mine to this day due to a very poor woman driver in a 4x4
