Hi
Im looking at a hot hatch on a budget and am looking at a vw polo gti vs the ford fiesta XR4 With the xr4 some of the ones available have just under 100k on the clock (80-95) and most are over at around 130k My budget is around 8k plus onroads What are some common problems with this car? What are the things i should look out for? As far as I know you need to change the belt at around 100k Do these cars have cams that also need to be changed at 100k? Im thinking if its had regular servicing and all major works have been done it maybe cheaper to get one thats done just over 100k rather than one thats done 80 then me doing the major in a year or so Id travel around 10k a year thx |
