SHOUld I be hearing that?

When I put the clutch up/down then change gear whilst driving, the same noise is produced on each action. sounds like a very light crunch.

Should it be making this noise?

GP 1.2 8v.

Re: SHOUld I be hearing that?

For the past couple of days i've been driving a courtesy car 1.2 8v it is the worse version of the gp i have ever been in.

I would never recommend it to anyone. I think it's crap.

Everything is missing that makes the gp good! rant over.

More than happy with my 1.2 8v GP, would recommend to anyone. Who needs a 200 bhp car. If I wanted I could buy something like this easy. Would rather have a car that looks, good, drives well, good economy, dirt cheap insurance, roomy. Need I go on ?+

This was my previous car:



The build quality in this car was second to none. To go from a brillaintly built £800 car, to a poorly built £7,000 car is painfull
