Hateful machine, currently on the look out for something fun, although realistically i wont be in a position to buy for another 10~ months. I've been looking at anything from MINI Coopers S's, to 3 series coupes.

98k km. Never a problem bar an air conditioning compressor under warranty. Runs and looks like new. Would like to replace it with an FR diesel but can't bring myself to part with it at the moment (plus waiting to see what the new year brings workwise:rolleyes:)

No major problems. Spoke to the boss yesterday about potentially importing UK car in April next year when car is due for replacement. He was impressed by the propaganda about the value you can get from the UK. Sucker!

Or get him to buy me a Skoda Octavia VRs

No problems, touch wood, bar some paint dulling which a good polish would sort out if I could only find the time/ felt I wouldn't ruin it completely.

Smashing car - Thirsty though

Its a strange Alfa; 1 front shock, a MAF and Timing belt kit in 3 years is all she cost me in maintenance.
I will be sad trading for a GT, but not for long!

1) 2004 Ford Focus
2) 1.4 Zetec
3) Petrol

Meant to be used when the Alfa comes over all Italian, Its Ms. Maruney's to shoot around in.

Hellrazer

4) 61,000 miles.

Anyone that knows me knows I like my Hyundais for some very strange reason.
Anyway this is my first insurance on my own in 15 years since I lost the company car back in May so I needed something cheap and reliable and the Accents are reliable as anything and cheap to insure.
Looking for a 1.6 Coupe(older model) if anyone has one going cheap even needing a bit of work would suit.

Thinking of replacing it with a Brera soon as I need something that doesn't turn me into a speed freak when I get behind the wheel

Alright car, handles well but the engine can be a bit rough (tired timing chain).

As someone in here called it once ...a "wardrobe on wheels" which is quite appropriate because it's just as practical and just as fast as a wardrobe.

Have really fallen out of love with this car but only since I got the skoda find it's fairly bouncy on the road and get's loads of niggly probs and forever beeping out warnings but on the plus side it is so economical and infairness it's fairly nifty too

I remember when I started driving, I was jealous of anyone who had a 1.2 Corsa, as I had a 1.0 Ibiza.

I got to drive one one day, and it was like all my birthdays had come at once. It was soooooooo quick compared to my Ibiza!

The missus has one now, and yeah I have to agree. It is slow!

After driving 3,5 years with 800cc Matiz I changed to 2.0l s40, I was almost scared how fast it was, now I kind start to wonder that I need faster car:)

It's worse because it's the new model, much heavier than older ones.

It cruises quite comfortably on the motorway, but try putting your foot down to overtake and you'll be waiting a long time.

Nothing wrong with it yet,though i find i'm topping up with nearly a litre of oil between 4 and 6k miles,depending on the driving.

It's not the most exciting car to drive, not the quickest, not the best looking, but is fairly compatent at them all. I know some say it's as dull as ditchwater, but it starts every morning and gets driven in a very "Spirited" fashion (Front tyres last less than 15k to 20k Km).

For excitement, there's a '77 Esort at home, with a 1.9 205GTi hopefully on the way as well.......
