BHPian Kumaran93R<\/strong> recently shared this with other enthusiasts.<\/p>\n Just thought of updating about this car and reviving this old thread here.<\/p>\n I purchased the car from Gilead two years ago and it has been a great journey so far. Me and the Blu Monster have clocked 25k kms in the last two years, and she recently crossed 90k on the odo.<\/p>\n It took me quite a while to know that a thread about this car exists here. But that is the beauty of Team-BHP. It felt wonderful to read through the memories and discussions of the car from almost 15 years ago.<\/p>\n Regarding the car, I have had to do a lot of maintenance like a full suspension overhaul, to bring her back to what the 1.6 S stood for. And boy does she shine on the twisties and on the highways.<\/p>\n The engine feels just about adequate, especially when compared to the modern turbo petrols. But the way she pulls from 3k rpm to the 6.8k rpm red-line is sublime even today and will put a lot of modern econobox cars to shame.<\/p>\n But the car’s true highlight is the suspension setup. Firm on low speeds, but go anywhere above 80kmph, she hugs the road and gives immense grip while plastering a smile on your face.<\/p>\n More updates on the way on how I found this car and her journey over the last couple of years.<\/p>\n Check out BHPian comments for more insights and information.<\/p>\n
