Thats very impressive. Most modern cars make Lotus cars look extremely reliable!

200k in a little car like that seems unbelievable!

 

Is it worn out? It certainly looks fine externally.There was a time that Fiats, Lancias etc were lucky to make their 3rd birthday.

I am amazed at how good the quality is. The Interior is as new.

Congrats thumbsup

 

How has the paint lasted?  The paint on my 500 is even more cheese-like than the VXs, it's a 12 plate with 25k on the clock and abslutely peppered on the front.

There a quite a few stone chips, but nothing excessive.

 

Remap gave around 15 bhp and 25 lbft of torque. Mine is the 75 bhp version.

 

The map transformed the car.
