Funny you mention how different they feel! All aspects of my two and jons are completely different! 250k has medium everything, but light clutch,
150k one has perfect light and delicate feel steering once its warmed up....... light gearbox thru lack of synchro, and now a light clutch after changing broken cable :cry:
suspension is great over speedbumps, and quiet!
In fact, it just flows fantastically!

Jons has lumpy suspension, but a good box and a nice meaty feel to the steering, more akin to later peugeots, in fact it feels about 10 years newer than the other two!! looks it too!!
And my TZD which has the a magic carpet ride by comparison with the others!! and thats nothing compared to theold 1.4 just broken, which just flew and floated over all! yet nothing was really it for reuse, had just found a happy sweet spot :lol:
