if going for another oil burner the peugeot is probably about the best of the engines in a front wheel drive. most peugeots i have driven have had a good chassis and have been at heart bomb proof but they do tend to shed parts that the car deems it doesn't need like trim etc.

Henrick (h-blake) changes cars regurlay and dirves a pug so he might be tempted to part with his car with empeg mount already installed just an idea.

Fords i don't like but have never driven them since they started to make more intresting cars.

Jap cars are normally pretty reliable but can be more costly on parts so therefore insurance may be higher.

If i was going for a small inoffensive diesel car it would probably be a pug.

but i am looking for a small very offensive petrol car
