Fed up with the Golf

Want another blue oval, cant afford another S1 but seen a few nice 1600i's about

Anyone run one as a daily?

I don't go far, probably 5 miles a day, no garage though, parked on road

Ive read the coil packs are problematic especially with damp ect? Fuel pump relays and ecu's are troublesome also ive heard?

Im expecting the odd break down but is running one as a daily practical and realistic?

Ive thought about getting one with a zetec conversion but thin on the ground....

Id even consider an S1 replica if it was really solid

Should have between 4/5k
