I dont use mine every day, and havent done for about nine years now.
I seriously couldnt bear it every day
I'd have to put some standard shocks back on if i did, and bin all the poly bushes...

Chris69

mines used everyday and tbh it ain't that bad- EFi helps though
don't see any worse mpg than a v6 car and tbh with the konis teh ride ain't that bad, can't beat the heated front windscreen on the cold mornings either

I take it most people are running a safe spec - like 200bhp?

You lot must be doing something right if they are being used daily

Whats a good reliable engine spec then??

Thanks

turbo

Every day, 1.7 bar held, much more when i have time to get the fuelling sorted.

Linsay

At the moment, yes
Usually goes in the garage around this time until March, but have been using it for work recently whilst i find myself another 306 diesel to smoke about

I used my series 2 everyday for nearly a yr and didn't miss a beat. Certainly didnt use my series 1 everyday....it was too good to drive. ha.

Reverted to cheap xr3i now, can do what i want with that!

they run better when used every day imo

Dragsteer

I dont use it everyday only because crappy croatian streets and gas price. I drive it about 3 days a week.

Coldo

I use mine everyday but dont do massive miles, couldnt bear using it loads, just too old, cold and unreliable.

sters1986

used my s1 every day but not the s2 iv got now.fuel costs mainly tho got me 306 diesel to go to work and back and bring da s2 out weekends

philcab

mine is running around 280bhp
2.1 zvh on cossie management runnnig 28 psi.

and its only let me down when the head gasket went and the turbo went apart from that its great. or the fuel is not that good.

roro22

I use my S1 as a daily drive, but it's starting to wear me down. Noisy and not comfy for an old man like me. Think it's time to sell it and buy a big cruiser.

RobL
