I am thinking to buy green S1 at Paul Matty MY98 only 27000 mile it says cam belt will be fitted and full service plus MOT 13995£ looks fabulous trading my Audi A5
it must be my every day car. Is this bad idea? Most of people buy S1 as second car I know but I wanted for long time S1 Green and magnolia leather it looks perfect.
Is S1 usable every day in relibility wise ?
any advice appreciated
thanks

To be honest A5 engine idling stop , auto climate , rain sensor auto wiper,every thing automatic sometimes annoying. I want to back to basic focus to drive but budget limit. I wanted basic green S1 Elise long time ago so If I am maniac enough to ignore rain leak or mist window or awkward in and out, I go S1 like I did to replace i-Phone to Blackberry passport people said weired but I like it.
wish me luck.
thanks
