I have a 1994 1.6. I have had it now for 5 months and use it daily. Fuel consumption is very good and it has been very realiable. I find it very comfortable to drive and accomodates a family of 5 easily, it is spacious. Although you do lose some boot space as compared to a hatchback, but I feel this is due to the room needed for the hood when folded and strenghtning of the vehicle. Body parts are slightly difficult to come by, which may be due to the age of the vehicle; but joining one of the many owner clubs is a gods send as the others will help. Not all hoods leak, if the hood is fitted correctly and the seals, then you should be ok. And against popular belief, I believe that they are not ice boxes in the winter. Yes they are slightly colder than a 'tin top' but its not a disadvantage. I feel that road handling is very good, I travel some miles on motorways
