Picking up Glanza this week....

[dannyhack]

Hello guys, im supposed to be picking up a glanza this week but im starting to have doubts. It seems quite a few people on here have problems with them and seems like they always need money spent on them to keep them running...... Not sure i can afford to keep chucking money at it if i get one.

Is there many things that go wrong, and is there anything i can do to reduce the rates of repairs?

Thanks.

Thanks for the welcome mate, its actually got quite a high spec running 215bhp. but surely if i service it as often as needed and not abuse it shoudlnt be that many problems should there?

Thanks again

Welcome along mate Take the advice given above and you'll be fine

[dannyhack]

Cheers guys how often should i change fluids etc?

Should i put it in for a service as soon as i get it home then yeah?

Thanks

[LeeG]

6-8k do the service on it. yeah dont see why u shouldnt do service on it when u get it home unless the oil is still clean lookin then just leave it.

I change my oil ever 4000miles, car is on a rebuilt engine now after the first one failed and I don't abuse it and as said always maintain it, it's just luck of the draw

Thanks dude, think i should go for it then?

Have you gone and looked at it?

If not then have a good look around it before handing any cash over

[Liam_D]

Seems to be a fairly tidy example mate, aslong as its been looked after and maintened well there wont be no problems with relaibility. Glanzas are bullet proof if maintained properly.

Welcome to UKSC dude.

[dannyhack]

Just thinking now guys, if anyone lives near oxford could they come over and check the car im getting just to make sure theres nothing wrong with the car before i buy it. Obviously i will pay the person for there efforts. You guys know alot more about these cars than me.

Thanks.
