vanishing days will become famous soon enough
ive had mine 6 months and not had any major issues. the way i look at it i do around 10,000 miles a year now i could spend that time sitting in a boring car and just drive. or drive my 180 and enjoy it it.

180's may cost more on petrol but nothings seems to go that wrong the v6 is much more reliable than my other cars. my mates dad has a 180 that he has had from new 2001 and has now done 160k miles and only had to replace the inlet once and the clutch not bad in 9 years

were as my a year of 120 ownership i had the waterpump go then the gasket in the inlet go then the inlet went completly then the wiring messed up i spent around ?500 on repairs on my 120 in the first 6 months and before that i had a hyundai accent that managed to destroy 2 fuel pumps and then dump all its oil and kill the engine. so to me the v6 is cheap to run!
