Is this car any good

[m456an]

I think it has a timing chain, but does this burn oil or any problems I should look out for, was looking at Argo but they are expensive.

Hi,

Yes, the 1.6 has a timing Chain, and 2005 probably is post the oil burning problem.

Nothing special from any other older car, though some of the earlier ones do have problems with the heater matrix blocking, so check the heater and air con both work ok

Looks good and clean  tarted up for sale, but no pics of inside the boot or engine ?

Unusually low mileage for 4 owners,  so check the online . gov  mot mileage history / advisories and HPI of course.

You really need to see if first hand and test drive it.

Plenty of power in the 1.6 and I get 40mpg mixed.

The oil consumption issue was fixed on production models from July 2005. Some built prior to July were fixed under warranty.
