The car is a great usable, honest and un-messed with Cup
Car is hardly being used as now bought diesel automatic, seems a shame to sit here, but not in any hurry to sell or going to give it away
Cash on collection or bank transfer. Car will not be released until funds fully cleared. No swaps or part ex thanks
Viewing is welcome and recommended to appreciate the condition of the carWe took a long time to find a decent car that hadn't had the boy racer treatment or had issues, rust or damage. Having found the right car we have kept the the car well looked after and it is probably just as
as good if not better now than when we bought it in 2010. It has been my wife's pride and joy as her daily driver for 13 years returning 36-38 mpg average. It is the perfect hot hatch being subtle (no big exhausts or lary spoilers), fast, economical and practical.
Unfortunately my wife now struggles with her wrist/ thumb and struggles with the gear lever and reverse, so we have bought a diesel automatic
