scutch0 Posted December 20, 2007 Author Share Posted December 20, 2007 well guys, the car will be going back as the repair is ok, but theyve left a run in the paint, i was gonna sort it myself but then i thought, fuck it, why should i!the c3 was ok actually... i was actually starting to enjoy driving it yesterday... it handled ok, but the brakes were absolutely immense. it was still gutless for a 1.4 tho, defo slower than the n/a.geo, mine wouldnt even do a ton! it struggled to anything over 70! ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
