Advantages: FAST + CHEAP

Disadvantages: NOT MANY MECHANICS KNOW HOW TO FIX IT

If ever there was a car that fitted the description "POCKET ROCKET" this is that car.
993cc twincam turbo injection - the most powerful 1litre car ever built 99BHP in its standard form makes it very rapid for such a tiny car, but with extras such as performance exhausts, airfilter + a BBR reboost chip, you can get it up to about 140BHP. (F**?*?G FLYING)

The Jreg model that i owned myself for 3years was the best car i ever had, pity i had to sell it for a deposit for my house.

The best thing about it was the running cost, only group 11 insurance + being less than 1 litre very cheap on fuel.

The worst thing was when it brokedown hardly anyone know anything about the engines, so the just have to try and guess whats wrong. For about 12months i had a problem with mine it seemed to be flooding with fuel, all the local garages had a go at fixing it, including the HOPELESS daihatsu dealer, they tried changing filters and lots of other solutions , but in the end it turned out to be the brake servo????

So if your a bit of a BOYRACER and fancy something cheap + fast this car will definately bring a smile to your face.
