Only if it's badly laid...:(

67 of your finest strong dray horses doesn't make for much tyre smoking action, hence the request for the (100bhp) Gti motor.

I guess a 17k engine is pretty fresh though, so a little, ahem, massaging is on the cards for sure.

I can't believe how sensible I've been though. I could have had a 20k 3-door in metalic purple for the same money, but I went for the 5-door in non-metalic red....

.... I dunno', I'll be looking at seat covers next! :rolleyes:

Get the beaded ones, ooooo and a tartan rug for the rear shelf :D :D :D

How about a 25 horse shot of Nos, that should sort it out, or maybe a blower kit :D :D :D :D :D :D

has the swift have the same motor as the justy?
i have just returned from Budapest and they are very popular over there.
im looking for a cheap motor for the misses, found a swift 13 ithink ist a SE or GS on a L reg with 42,000 miles, has a dented drivers door only, is available at £400
does any one rate them? what insurance group are they?

Dunno about that. The GTi's are bloody brilliant. VERY quick for such a small engine. That seems bloody cheap for an L with that little mileage. Something must be wrong!! LOL The GTi's are group 11 and I have no clue as to the GS sorry :(

The Justy is just a 4wd Swift, but only the Swift Gti has the 16v engine.

Oh, and they're built in Hungary so you would see a lot in Budapest!

GS is group 8 insurance, and Parkers values yours at about a grand(ish) if you ignore the door damage.

Anything else?:)

thanx for your replys,
group 8 is too high for such a little motor as i want it to replace my rover 216gsi,which is the same,
found the swift in a yard while looking for parts for my s14a,
it has drivers door kink only, up for £750,but i know they will snap up about £400,coz they always do.
i need the lowest insurance grp i can find so i i get the misses driving.
wana get a KTM duke
any SM nuts on the board?
:)

Parkers lists them as between group 6 and 9 depending on model, but they're all the same power so it seems a bit odd.
Might be worth getting a quote, you never know.

Oh, and the road tax is cheaper than a 1.6. :)
