I use to love mine, really can give it death and not worry about it, for me mine was ultra reliable and the other thing that happened was it had a sticky rear caliper.
Mine was a Uk Dc2 build number 150 and had a few bits on it but the previous owner put Ep3 17s on it and it ruined it for me so swapped back to the standard 15s with a decent set of tyres and it completely transformed the car.
I had a Tanabe SMR Exhaust on mine as well as a Buddy Club Spec 2 for all of a week and the car was pretty loud. When i get another one i honestly think i will keep it as standard as possible out of the box i think they are a fantastic drivers car and most modified examples are worst to drive from my experience
