Oh wow!

This is absolutely identical to my 2nd car, RMK134Y, henna red, 4 door saloon. I had the 1.3l engine in it. I went from that to D450ARY, a 5 door SRi hatch in helios blue over anthracite (much, much nicer). My memories of the brown was is that it was pretty reliable, didn't rust much, but was slow and noisy. I had no frame of reference so thought it handled like a Porsche, when in reality they were really understeery and felt like the nose was too light. That seat material is really course and scratchy.

Keep it standard, please, for a FOTU sure-fire win. 

keeping it original its 1600L with a 4 speed gearbox ,no need for 5 speed it will only going local show odd day up the lakes be fine to what i want to do,
