Cheap second cars???
prepare to laugh at me. just purcahsed a kia picanto or hyundia getz to you and i its 4 years old done just over 50k insuarnce group two up to 60 to the gal, cant falut it price £1100 got the cambelt done etc new rubber, 400 bucks. tax £30 so one veryu very cheap newis run about, ok not a motorwy lover but round town yeh its alright slow, brakes def work tho, found that out when i climbed back off the dashboard. feels like a europeon hatch. as for vitaras, i had one. i treated it like a slut. through small rivers hit tree stumps did doughnuts in gravel carparks abused it in everyway possible crashed it througha fence one morning. it came back for more every damn time. we hiota tree stump one night the exhaust manifold went bright red turned it off for abit then starte dit back up once cool ran fine. sucked water in the engine it bogged for half a mile then woke up again. so yeh it was fun, but i did feel like a hairdresser in it it was awful on feul considering what it was. expensive to insure and really unless you flipped the seats there was no boot space. my friends focus was much more spacious for carrying stuff

fuel smell
right chaps toghtened up the clips a few of them where about a full turn or more of slack to be tighten up. think they possibly need replacing if im honest with myself. no drips from teh pain in the ass one. fired teh car up and it deffinatly smelt alot less, but was still there so i think its new fpr time. my sense of smell is rubbish unfortunatly, but it was def teh only wet thing i found and the wet smelt like feul
