Swapped this for a £230 pug 206sw about 6 weeks ago with mot till November.
It's had head gasket, water pump and cambelt kit + auxiliary belt and new alternator and starter motor fitted by previous owner . Needed new rear discs and pads and cv joints both sides I've now done the cv joints and new rear discs and pads coming tomorrow, but the noise I thought was due to the cv joints turned out the be the diff bearings . So fitting a gearbox that's done 60k soon.
Only mods I've done so far is fitted front fogs, led numberplate and sidelight bulbs, sprayed grilles gloss black and a performance backbox
