YES
I had one for just over a year ......... Well it was our lasses car really
Cracking car, quick . Good handling and can fit four adults
The fuel consumption was the reason it had to go. We averaged around 18 mpg and our annual mileage was 10,000
This was when super unleaded was over £1.50 a litre so we were sticking in £100 a week into the thing
Shame it had to go because we both loved that car
It didn't use much oil either as some people report
Just liked a drink

Yes but I would want an early 2006 as I don't like paying stupid amounts of tax for a Sunday toy.
I want it compression tested.
I want it tidy and low miles
And I want it sub £2k

Good fun little cars. But a lot suffer from hot start problems.
Give it a good test drive, so that every thing has been running up to temp for 30 mins. Then see if it starts straightaway.
Good luck

Yep you want one pre 1 March 2006 or the tax is somthing like £450/y
Unless you get the car very cheap.
I nearly bought one last week. From a specialist that was compression tested. Price was ok at £2k but it was a dear tax bracket 06 in a very dark
blue.
