Regular maintenance
« on: May 17, 2016, 04:19:28 PM »

Well, it was my 1.1 Passion's 11th birthday last week so as a treat, today (it being the first fine day for a few) it was front brake pads and a new auxiliary belt. Then wash, polish and vac followed by the obligatory test drive. After 11 years it really does run like new and I can honestly say that has been one of the best cars that I have ever owned. Still has original battery and exhaust and apart from routine stuff like tyres, brakes etc it has been faultless.  Roll on the next 11 years! ;)

Hey Keith  , good to hear it's all going well .... I've had a very similar ownership experience ...... you've got to love our little 'Jam Jars'   :) , Mine will be 12 years young in September, and I don't even think about replacing it .
