Can’t believe I missed the initial thread…. but anyway. Yeah I’ve had two…. sold the 1st one too quickly, came back again a few years later for a 2nd one. Yes they’re a bit plasticy, a bit fragile, a bit slower than (insert other warm hatch name here), but who cares when they’re so much fun!
I got a late model, low mileage, well looked after one, and plan to look after it. Last year it clocked up 5k between MOT’s and in about a year it’ll drop to 3rd car status and maybe even get squeezed in the Garage or under cover. Might be unrealistic to think it’ll really appreciate in value under my ownership, but who knows, there never were that many registered for a mass market car, and there are going to be less and less every year.
Happy Motoring!
