Had a 2001 X Reg Marea 1.6 SX all week, with the view to bying it. It's only for work, we have our main family car for kids etc.
But I am impressed with this car, it's only becuase my car is getting repaired and the garage gave me this to tide me over....
Couple of things, it's done 80k, sometimes when I change from 2nd to 3rd gear I get a slight crunch, only if Ive accelerated away and maybe gone up to about 5000 RPM.....lower and it seems OK.
What MPG should it be getting, I feel it does use a bit of fuel up, are they heavy on fuel?
I got a light come on the dashboard, its a red circle with 3 lines each side, it only flicker son and off from time to time, it looks like a brake warning...its not the one with the ! in the centre....
It's very solid, faster than I would have thought a 1.6 would be and smooth. I do like it, never thought I would, but it's a good car.
Thanks, any comments much appreciated
