      Had one of these lumps in a 206 tuition car. Belt, pump, idlers on the interval. 121K in 6 years of learners. Never a problem, just the usual weep from the head oil delivery seal. As for slow? 3 figures....eventually.

    I had one of these a few years ago, same year, same colour, same engine with 130,000 miles on it. They do take a bit of winding up. Also its a bullet proof engine and they are brilliant on diesel, plus loads of room, good for tip runs. Just slower than a Lada full of elephants going uphill

    The stand in "Alright guys, how's it going, welcome back" was superb, an excellent imitation of Matt, I think Ste and Ajay did a good job presenting, guess you guys are now the official channel super-subs. A Qashqai or a Juke would've been a hilarious prank. I did see it had done 100 miles since it's last MOT and it looked pretty clean under the bonnet. I remember these used to be absolutely everywhere and so, like the 80's/90's Vauxhall Nova, it is kind of cool to see one out and about because it's a rare old survivor. Or maybe my car tastes are just weird like Matt.
