i took my car to garage today first actualy journey since i had it
had to give it a jump in the morning but for some reason the power steering wasnt working all the way there. and once there the mechanic started it up
how is the power steering setup like on these cars.
other then that i was very impressed with the car power wise it was excellent and i didnt even put my foot down

the power steering is done by speed, so at slower speeds it "turns on more" and higher speeds it won't be so powerful

did you get insurance sorted?

after 2 years NCB my best quote on a PD130 is £1760.... so im having to stick with my 1.2 for now. I paid £2200 for a 1.2 sx 2 years ago... i just dont understand how some of you guys get it so cheap lol!

Cheapest quotes iv found are from a company called Performance Direct?

Elephant and Admiral are the same company :D

i thought they might be as there layout stuff all seemed the same

I phoned them and im paying a total of £2900

Im not sure if it is worth me keeping the car as I will be cutting down on my driving so wont be making huge savings on fuel
hmm i have a lot of thinking to do
