Is that one of those Shitreons AX's? That is why a Jap car makes sense.

Citreon AX vs Skoda Estelle. I would rather have the Skoda, now a cult car.

That is so true, my wife has a nice J reg Mazda 323F in black, never really let her down. Good strong car and engine and looks cool with pop-up headlights, you know it makes sense.

Thanks for the sympathy you lot. The car has been in the family, mother's then my sisters and now mine and is usually very well behaved and nice.

I AM trying to get a five, but I can't afford to run it at the mo. Yes, Jap is better, but I had no reason to believe that she would misbehave as soon as I got her!

ggggrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.


Think its damp in spark plugs. I keep her in the garage so hopefully I can sort her out and this will be the end of it!

If its damp its the same problem I used to have with the renault. Used to have to take HT leads off plugs, and spray both ends with WD40 and on some cars in past have had t spray inside of distributor cap too!!

Its funny about french cars because ive had 5 and only 1 was broken (and broken it stayed) but when you get a bad one well they play merry hell!

is it the 1litre engine fi??? might be able to offer a bit of advice as it'll be the TU series engine...

Its the highly powered 954 version Nath!!! very speedy! She is ok, has some things go wrong with it for my sister but was fab for my mum. So she is a bit stroppy, like most women! Taking her to the garage on Monday, so hopefully will get her sorted. Might pick your brains though if she continues to be naughty! Mind you, I have not forgotten that you want to steal the suspension off her!

Hopefully she will behave after this.....or I can get a proper teaching job and buy a five and run it!
