Check the part of the ad where he says
"The Reason For Sale
I Have Moved On To A SAXO VTR & Part Grown Up"
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...488815142&rd=1
Classic line!

Saxo, My GF has one. ok I lie we part own it.
Ok here goes. Had two sunroof seals and still every time it rains there are lovely puddles on driver and passenger front floor wells. It rattles from every where like the french piece of shit it is. Give her some welly and then half way down the road it stops and wont start again.
Oh and the best part of these cars is the wicked brakes (Disks front and rear I have you know)
Just they aint bloody connected them to the break peddle.
All in all I would never ever own another one.
Still our local insurance compound has about ten at any one time.
Think a leaf fell on one and wrote it off.
Cheap nasty rattly crap.

My girlfriend has pne actually, she's 20 and it's a 1.1. It's on a W plate so should be alright as she doesn't screw it etc yet when started in wet or damp it won't start right away and the engine revs itself up and down! Garage can't find a problem and it's had a full service, spark plugs done etc to no avail. Piece of crap!

Why the hell does he have 2 3i's both rotters at that! lol...
TBH id choose a shitreon saxo over a 3i anyday.. just because its a newer car etc.
IMO 3i's and VTR's are about as quick as each other... the saxo's handling is (again IMO) far better than the 3i's even if the 3i might be slightly quicker in a straight line... having said that the advert states that he has 'grown up' and bought a saxo.. lol i know far more younger people with saxo's than 3is! anyone whos got a 3i round here is an old duffer
