Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

In their own words

My father bought this car brand new in 2004.
The car has been extremely reliable after 18 years and 134.000 miles still runs like new.
It is not extremely fast but it is fun to drive and you can kick some cars with similar HP: It has a short gear ratio, 5 speed and the torque is good after 1.800 rpms.
Overall I'm very happy with the car it rides smooth!

How reliable do you find the car?

I have to change the alternator at 100.000 miles, clutch 130.000 miles and the door lock actuator.
The leather seats are in very good shape and the AC still blows cold.
The engine doesn't burn any oil or coolant.

Does the car do everything you expected it to do?

It is an easy car to drive. Economical, Solid and it as plenty of space to the passegenrs.
I've made some improvements:
Changed the original suspension to Bilstein GAS.
The brakes and discs are from EBC.
