shes the only girl i know that can take off with a tripple plate clutch but hates no power steering
fussy or what:D
haha, ah it has power steering lol
i would swap it for parts if you had anything for a cam or skyline that would be sufficient :)
Also if its any better, i have a 96 1.4 saloon almera, silver,
body has a few dings in it but she drives grand,
97000miles if i remember correctly
nct for 2 more months if i also remember, but the last owner lost the disk, so ll i have is the cert, no disk,
Problems: clutch cable needs some wd40, will be doing that myself as im driving it at the moment,
rev counter has a spasm every now and then , its probably a loose sensor or something, gonna have a look the weekend
the locks work fine on this one though lol
I was gonna drive this one myself for the winter as its a great little car and sell the fiesta but if its up your alley id gladly pass it on
looking for 500 for it aswell
