I remember changing a thermostat on one late one night, had to be done from underneath as was at the back of the engine. I lost count of how many time I tried to get the bolts back in. Luckily it didn't leak and I managed to get to work on the Monday. Sadly it failed its MOT a few months later on terminal rust.

I have fond memories of it but also a few bad ones, it decided to stall one night on my way to the then girlfriend and it refused to start, no RAC cover or anything else so I walked the rest of the way in the rain. I arrived late and she was so angry she would not speak to me so I walked back and thought I would give it one more go, yes you guessed it fired up straight away so I drove it home.
