In their own words

My car is a 2015 diesel. First off £0 road tax to pay, brilliant. Insurance is cheap. Fuel averages 55mpg over the last 30,000 miles. The cars seats are comfortable, the materials used in building the car are good quality. The performance has been improved with an ECU remap that I paid for from a very professional company, this cost £450 but now drives much better, with good power through all the gears. Since owning the car I've replaced front wipers and four new Goodyear tyres, new disks and brake pads. Have to top ad blue now and again, good idea to put a shot of diesel redex in the tank now and again. The car is lovely to drive, the best Cactus models have the soft rubber bump panels on the doors, makes the car look very different and interesting. The car suffered a lot of depreciation in its first 3 years but since I bought for £10k strong resale values 5 years later, worth approx £7.5k now probably as owners have found them so reliable and comfortable. The diesel with an ECU remap is better than the petrol and the engine seems really strong and healthy having done 38k since 2018. I will never sell this car, will maintain/run it into the ground, highly recommend.
