So really I saw it as a multiple step down so it didnt get much love. Then to compound the issue I had a hand brake failure after 2 months of ownership and the damn thing rolled into my bosses brand new bmw. Not showing itself in glory the rear dampner gave up and I had a few niggly issues.
However after joining the forum and learning some of the tricks my siggy has become a car im really happy with.
I have a 2003 design 2.2 dti, and changing the shocks over to b4's has transformed the handling, and after a good service, new brake lines, some other tweaks i think its ace. I love the rear seat arrangement, the dog fits in the boot, the seats are comfy and the fuel return is pretty good. Ok its not what I would call fast but its no 1.1 fiesta!
Anyways with my new found love for it, I have treated myself to an ebay sourced travel assit (Think Vauxhall fleeced me for the fitting kit though £42!) i thought it would be good for keeping the some bits cool whilst on day trips with the dog!
Im now looking at one of the cheap double din tv units with a digital tuner for long journeys.
Anyway just thought I would share my thoughts!
