had a vtr for 15 months, had countless problems with it even tho it had full service history etc so i dont really trust them anymore. but i loved the speed and the handling! n its bein written off soooo....
im thinkin of goin tight and get a 1.1i desire but the insurance is only 70quid less per year!
is the 1.1i ALOT cheaper to run and more reliable or shall i just get another vtr? or a pug 106?? i dunno
cheers

are you really asking the question? lol... you love your car... look for a tidy example of a VTR.. even if it envolves saving abit more money for something with under 50k on the clock... they do exist.

May only be £70 less on insurance but tax will be cheaper as well.
Things can still go wrong with them.
I'd go for a vtr.

what about something totally different from a saxo if you want a change?

Go for VTR or the 106 for something different. You'll get bored of less power.
I have a 1.1, the only problem i've had in a year was a leaky CV boot on one of the driveshafts.
