Nice choice. A car for men of class and taste, especially in 1.8 form biggrin

Yes I found that forum,thanks.

I'm waiting for the administrators to sign me up though.

Its a great car,(it is a 1.8)drives very well better than some with half the miles on the clock.

I haven't enjoyed a drive like I had today back to Surrey from Dorset,in any car since the 911Turbo that I used to own!!

I plan on keeping this one for a long time,all being well.



Cheers

Steve

Yeah I'm loving mine to so far.

Got to get the handbrake checked out though,it doesn't hold very well on a steepish hill.
Its probably just me,I need to pull it a bit harder!

Superb car and really stong following. Post 95 twin spark is one of the best four pot engines ever make. I had a flippy blue one until some bint decided to use it to redesign the front of her KA. "B" pillar on the drivers side, total loss. :-(
Well worth taking care of as they are getting as desirable as the 75 now and the 156 just doesn't hit the right buttons for me. The 155 was perfect three kids or golf clubs (if you must) are no problem, just a happy as a work horse as on a track day. Best B road saloon.
Just get in and enjoy it.
