ha ha
dont listen to 180kph he loves to take digs at glanza's lol
there handerling is fine if car is stock, but worth upgrading if u plan modding the performance
0-60 is around 7secs stock
much easier to tune than a saxo, can get any parts ud ever want off this site.
before posting lots of threads tho make sure u have a gud read in the welcome section and try using the search button at the top if u wana know anythin specific
good luck with it mate

Ok, so i've checked insurance and it seems reasonable enough. I am fully comp on my saxo, but will have to pay about 250 euro extra for fully comp on the glanza. is it worth the extra money or should i just go tpft?

So, all going to plan, i may be going to look at it next saturday or possibly earlier:D

So...is there anything in particular with them that i should look out for? being new to jap cars pretty much, is there anything that is particularly important to look out for?

Thanks for all yer help, much appreciated:)

Handling not great :| If you dont know how to drive the car though. Check the BMI videos against the pulsars etc and see how the stock ep82 did.

Hows it going, yea it was a glanza i used to own definatley not a saxo:p

Right it make it clear.
The starlet was not built to match a CTR but many compare the handling when they are 2 different types of cars,hence they get a bad rep for handling but i preferbly think the handling on my gt is pretty good just not excellent.

not having a go like just my view,above was a joke

Not to sound twattish but just go careful, roads are getting damp quickly these days! and going from a 1.4 paxo to a Glanza is a fair step (imo anyways, and I'm not the best driver in the world) Just saying.

Enjoy!
