  4. Thats my mates old glanza from oxfordshire she had a cracked head and the turbo seals has gone on it. It sat dorment in bicester on an air feild for over a year. Might want to check the head it was welded last time it cracked again thats why it was sat for ages he sold it to a mate who was going to fix it up. We spent ages replacing the tien locking hubs as they all rotted away Andrew
