Advantages: nimble with good performance for its engine size, fun handling Disadvantages: Steering takes getting used to, basic interior, basic equipment
of performance, the 1.1 is a little slow. If you know how to get the best out of an engine this isnt a problem and you will soon find yourself moving briskly, keeping things on the boil with a few more frequent gear changes than usual. My advice here, get one with a rev counter or if you are impatent dont be tight and get one with a bigger engine! I would reccommend the 1.4 Furio or 1.6 VTR (8v) if you want anything that has all-round performance.
Fuel
Even driven hard on motorways or back lanes it will always give around 45mpg. On a long careful drives we achieve 50mpg easilly.
handling is its best quality - lots of FUN. Dont forget the VTR/VTS performance models are considered amongst the best handling cars around. It is beautifully balanced. My only critisism of the car here is that the ride can get 'bouncy' at times on rough roads ...
Advantages: Great for hitting, close control and lifting Disadvantages: Price is quite high
I have been playing hockey for a considerable number of years now and i gaced a tough decision when I decided i needed a new stick this season.
The last stick i bought was a very good stick and was very expensive as it cost me over £200, however its durability was very poor.
After doing some research on the internet i found the Grays O tech stick, with new technology that channeled the energy of the hit down to the ball because of the holes in the isde of the stick. They also decrease air resistance so that the swing can increase its speed. In my opinion you cannot argue with the technology behind this stick and i was thoroughly convinced. My local sports shop had one of these sticks in stock and i got to have a feel of the stick with a ball. I found the stick to have a great feel to it and it is very responsive. The only problem was ...
Advantages: Small engine means its economical, cheap tax and insurance Disadvantages: No power stearing, no ABS, no central locking, no alarm

About the car
---------------
This is a great little car that has many good points and a few little niggles.
I purchased this car in September 2000 (X-reg). I chose the colour Poseidon Blue (Metalic). At the time Citroen were giving a years free insurance away with the car, which as a young male driver this I found was invaluable.
The basic on the road cost of the car was around £7200 after the cash back deal. (£800 pounds at the time).
With a 1.1i petrol engine (1124cc) you will find the Saxo usually does around 45 miles per gallon even when you give it some stick. Also having such a small engine the car passes for reduced road tax, which is a big bonus!
Inside the Forte model you will find a CD player with four speakers (2 in front and 2 in back). You will notice ...
