Oh god, did they really come with the 800cc engine? Haha.

The Matiz is cool enough... Our Dad bought one for some reason, used to potter to the shops and back in it. I had the misfortune of having to drive it to college when my car broke down.

Still remember slip streaming one of those big industrial drain cleaner lorries on an approach to a dual carriage way... As soon as the roads split, I went for it, 40mph, foot flat to the floor then BOOM, side winds. Safe to say I had to pull back in behind said lorry. Felt like killing myself.

i cant get past it either.. why not buy a £400 car and pay £1600 off your loan..thus paying it off probs well over a year sooner?

Well good luck modifying it in anyway as parts aren't easiest to come by. My work used to be a Chevrolet dealer and I've worked and still work on these I hate them they are shockingly bad on fuel.

So plasticky inside its horrible I don't know why you bought it tbh plenty other cheaper reliable cars out there.

Depreciation is unreal on these aswell expect to get nowhere near your money back on it aswell.

Have you hit the redline in any gear yet? Be prepared if you do.

Each to there own though good luck with it. As for wheels it has same stud pattern as vauxhall just different offsets

I said used to be haha only Landrover dealer now and I'm Landrover tech so I only work on these things once a month if that

rick_VTR · 9th January 2013, 18:11

should have got a proton tbh

get a 05 plate gen 2 for that kind of money

protons have got to be the worst cars for depreciation. but excellent solid motors!

If I'm honest I don't think it needs much other than lowering a tad more than it already is, as stated I dont plan on doing anything remotely major to it.

I agree with the dash and as for redlining it, I'm too old for that shit now, it's a commuter not a racer and I bought it with my eyes wide open to that fact.

I just wrote out 2 paragraphs of pure hate, but I deleted it as I thought I was having a terrible nightmare.

He blew up the Alfa and died. Then a dragon came and shit on his mangled carcass, then he got run over by hardcoreblowjob who laughed because he didn't have B8s

Cool story. Etc...

You're ginger! Need I say more?

Already said that I don't want to do much to it, if you actually had a brain cell under that warm glow on your head you would perhaps of read what I said.

As for expecting people to say its nice it's you that is talking shit, once again. I don't anticipate many people liking it but thought now is the time to get the banter out of the way.
