Originally posted by sriray View PostThank you for reminding me my mazda6 isn't turbocharged and got no poke on the lower end. It also keeps telling me to shift gears early where there is no poke.
I'll bid you my Viva with its 1-litre naturally aspirated engine. That's a true definition of 'no poke on the lower end'.
However, it has been 100% trouble-free for the 50k it's done so far.
On the other hand, my (complex, filled with gadgets) Insignia 2.8 Elite with 20k on the clock at the time I bought it had a 4wd fault half an hour after leaving the dealer (probably why the previous owner traded it in)..

Originally posted by Drew View PostI dare hardly say it, my wifes corsa she bought new 17 years ago, it's the 1.0 3 pot and no it's not fast but its a lovely drive. Barely cost us a penny. We took it to Cornwall from the North East when it was new no problems at all. Takes a bit to get upto speed but will sit there all day long..

Shame i couldn't get it on automatic.
