Hello and thanks for letting me join. Just picked up this 2003 1.4 Petrol and I’m very happy with it.
I’ve been hoping this would come my way for a very long time and finally earlier this week it did.
Has been lying up for well over a year and is suffering from emissions problems which I’d like some advice on. Cat? lambda? Common problem?
It’s got a few scrapes but overall in very good condition and has only 45k miles.
Drives exceptionally well, apart from needing a little heavier throttle when pulling away in first (guessing related to emissions issue) but it’s solid, pulls well etc.
Slight wobble on braking so new discs on the shopping list.
Had a mouldy interior but sorted all that now (with astonish mould spray) and gave her a deep clean.
Passenger door strap was broken but addressed that and the non functioning window on the same door.
I’d love to get a set of roof bars for the car but was wondering about the sky roof and clearance?
It’s not my only car but about to become a daily driver with the current price of fuel - all my other stuff is a bit saucey on petrol and diesel.
I’m looking forward to reading the threads and hopefully contributing to the forum.
