rallyrus Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 The wife had one of these a year or two ago, a 00 or 01 model, was average on fuel for a 1.4, off road it was surprisingly good, in the snow it didn't have any troubles getting about where our other car was stuck at home. If using regular offroad I'd invest in a set of a/t tyres for it and it should do everything you want no problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drut Posted July 21, 2012 Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 Surprisingly capable,biggest problem for serious work is lack of low box.I use the earlier(2002) version but the 2006 on version is no less capable & mechanically very similar.
