We bought this car a little over a year ago with the intention of our daughter learning to drive in it and it being her first car. Our daughter's plans have now changed as she is moving to a big city for her first job and no longer needs the car. It has only covered 200miles in the last year and has just passed it's MOT with no advisories. Our local garage carried a full service and some corrective maintenance just after we bought it; replacing a wheel cylinder and brake pipe, front suspension arms, o/s inner steering arm, a tyre and adjusted the tracking. The timing belt, water pump and auxillary belt were all replaced along with the rocker cover gasket. They also repaired an exhaust bracket. We have the receipt for this work along with a folder of other receipts, past MOTs and service records. The car drives really well, starting first time even when left for a couple of weeks. The body work is in good condition. Inside, the leather seats are all in very good condition with no rips. We are sure the car would be a great first car as the insurance is relatively cheap, it's economical and easy to drive.
