Check out the sellers description of how this car handles. Nothing about how it was one of the best handling hot hatches ever or that even today it can hold its own, but THIS..."it can soak up country lanes with gay abandon"
Classic!

Northerner isn't he. Geordie in fact so English is a second language.

I guess the rear wiper is missing to save weight and how irritating would that bloody key chain be when driving!




Editied because English is clearly my second language as well!

Seems to be a common theme amongst small french hatchbacks.. my 106 came with the rear wiper removed and the hole blanked up.

Wiper arm and motor was still in the boot though, Oh and he didnt finish off removing the washer jet from the hatch - So i now have a rear fountain that sprays out in a gentle arch. Handy when someone tailgates though.

Why has this been moved/locked from the lounge?

I quite like that. It's written in English and anyone who manages to use the word "gay" in a non-ironic way gets my respect.

The car is a bit low though. It won't handle too well. Removal of the rear wiper isn't unusual as they tend to get rusted up and seize.

It's a thread relating to a car, hence why it has been moved to the car section.

Not a bad little car.
