Hi all After 7.5 years my bravo 2008 semi auto 84 k miles will be sold in the next few days it has been very cheap to run. Not using any oil between service Min 50 mpg local 60+mpg on a run I have had 70 mpg but that too boring parts replaced 6 tires, all still in good condition disk and pads all round at 50K Egr valve, set of glow plugs, rear box silencer , used driver door seal (£20) Plus service 2 camshaft kits water pump and aux belt second camshaft kit changed at 7 years 82 k after signs of belt deterioration and weeping water pump I had no intention of changing but my wife was fed up of neck jarring acceleration .My family bus is a 2015 C 3 Passico 1.6 vats + auto but to slow and boring for her . Our fun car is a new fiat Abarth 595 auto is to be delivered next week. The new clutch is a vast improvement for both cars. No more £30 now £130 road fund licence, this makes no difference the as road fund licence changes next year for new cars. Car insurance is nearly the same for both cars.
