Sport wagon fella.don't be put off by the price,these are cheap cars now although sub 20mpg with those mods.
Really good motors though,sadly tarred with the Chav stick nowadays.quick fun for £1500.
The quotes probably due to it being imported as it throws the comparison websites out to fuck!!!I did the rear pads on mine and the only ones that fitted were off a Subaru legacy,fronts the same.the oil filter was a nightmare as well,had to use a vw one in the end as I couldn't get a scooby one near it in the parts catalogue unless it was a main dealer item.
Easiest car I've ever done pads on front or back,the longest bit is taking the wheel off,one bolt and it all flips up,replace,tighten one bolt!!!I'm not sure if there's even a bolt on the back.12mm from memory as of course japs don't use 13mm.

If your looking for a new car have you thought about a fabia vrs? Quite a tunable lump, don't look to bad, good economy etc.

im suprised you can get insurance on any car for 450 with a recent claim with the sierra,i know its not your fault but they do like to shaft you afterwards.
i take it you have a clean licence?

The only way it will be doing sub 20mph, is with a tard driving it all the time, or a tard tuning it.

yes they can be hard on fuel, but any sensible driver can easily achieve high 20's, or touch into 30's as long as the car is running properly

Although the list of parts/spec in that advert, just scream of someone who hasnt the first notion about cars.
