Ah, cheers for that. I think when I checked it out, it's the 90 horse. I'm not really very familiar with the engine, so could be wrong. It doesn't have a DPF on it, which if I remember right, identifies it as the 90.
I'll check out what you said at some point.
Pulling a Cat matrix out is always a pleasure.
It's not a big drama at the moment, all I use it for is to go shopping, and the occasional day trip.
So nice to have a car, instead of going off in a sticky dirty old truck.

They love bio and are NOT as fussy as most will have you believe, they'll happily run on not quite 100% conversion. I had mine running on  95% just to prove how tough the fuel system is.

The one drawback with the picasso is the intank pump filter that WILL block at sometime or other, you have to remove the tank to get at it, not difficult just a pain in the bum.

That'll be another job on the list then.
Come summer, she's getting a real good going over.
117K on the clock, I'm the third owner. The straightest, tidiest car I've ever owned, and I paid £150 for it.
Hardly a spot of rust underneath, just a bit of surface rust on the back needs a lick of paint, so may as well do the whole lot, and get some waxoyl into it.
I must say, I'm a big fan of the car. Great layout inside, and glides along.

Yep, I just love'm, my old girl is 14 yrs old and she's never failed an MOT but there is one place that's common for rust, the front 1/3 of the door sills, if you can see bubbles under'm they're probably shot. And keep an eye on the rear brake line, they rust through.

I guessed that bit of the sill must be a common problem, because I see the panels on Ebay.
I wonder does water get down in there somehow?
I have had an inspection, and can't see any evidence as yet, but I'll keep an eye on it.
