how do you all think that they will keep up with pretty much anything? they get outrun by the sunrise. none of you are race car drivers wait till you get a bit older and get a proper car. to claim a 1400 will "keep up with/beat nearly anything" if driven properly is outrageous. love the car but you lot are ridiculous.

i have a 1998 106 quiksilver, absolutly love it, wouldnt get rid of it atal, its a great car to drive as its very quick and runs well on the motorway and also handels very well through corners and very fun to drive... its very nippy and amazingly quick off the mark.
also on the looks wise of the car, comes with great interior which is also very comfe, and the GTi body kit on the outside of the car give it an amazing look.
only problems i have with this car is the fact it breaks alot and the older it gets the more iot brakes, i'v only had my car for about 6months now and already it has had to have: the door tighetned, new exhaust, new clutch, new wiper blades, new clutch cable, new ball joint in the gear stick and the sunroof leaks. but amongts all that its a good car and will keep up or beat pretty much anything... all though the bits breaking means it is off the road alot and it gets expensive to fix..
but in my honest opionion i would recomend this car, even due to everything breaking, because when you drive it you have so much fun!!

Check the Ariel Mount by removing the interior light, I bet you will find the seal had gone around that more than the sun roof, Common fault and has been needed to be done on Partners car a couple of times now.

Would suggest checking the ariel mount (located under interior light) The seal is known to go on them and is a common problem. Just needs a bit of sealent to solve the problem. Sunroofs do go but ariel is more common so would suggest looking there.

The Peugeot 106 Quicksilver is a great little car, cheap insurance, easy to drive with just that extra bit of style! Beats most off the lights! Mine's been written off now because someone smashed into it from behind and I'm desperate to get another! Loved her!

Bought a standard 1999 Peugeot 106 Quiksilver
Modded it with cosmetic extras and body work.
Looks great and not dated.
Full engine re-build for £300 and thats cheap as chips. Plenty of performance extras available at low costs.
Gti interior now fitted and spoiler and rear axle.
Part just swap no prob and all work done is cheap. Best motor I've ever had. Quick and handles very very well.

Hi Ben,
im afraid there wont be much you can do to lower the premium considering your age (i had a 998cc Mini as my first car and the premium was still over £1300). Its the engine size mate - trust me start out with something around 1 litre, build your no-claims up (this will really help). Dont worry before you know it you'll be in something quicker. Hope this helps,
Adam
