well i just bought a little 1996 cento for my daughter who will be 17 in a few months. ive decided to run it as my own car until then as my normal motor (3000 v6 pajero) only does 17 mpg...!
WOW what a great little car to drive, i was smilling all the way home.
i did notice though that the temp gauge stayed at the 50 mark all the way back, the heater was blowing warm air into the car but not really hot.
this makes me think that it might be a sticky thermostat. sticking in the open position. are they easy to change. also the car has done 56 thousand miles and seems in really good condition, a little tappety just for a few seconds when you first start her up.
