This is my first real car (my real first car was a morris 1100). I acquired this little gem for a steal at $3500 and i was on top of the world until...
1)The ECU s$^t itself in the middle of peak hour traffic about a week after i got the thing.
2)The water pump seized up and cost over $300 to replace
3)The throttle jammed open in morning traffic
4)The passenger side bonnet hinge died and sent the edge of the bonnet through the windscreen.
