I've read everything needs to be taken off 5he top of the engine and might even need to have the engine removed to fix the tensioner or the chain.

Is there a way I can tell when I go to see the car without taking it apart (before I buy it) could there be damage to the engine because of the stretched chain that might not make it worth buying?...

I’m looking into upgrading the exhaust on my 1.3L (L881) Copen and I’m considering the D-Sport Sports Muffler Type-II.

According to the manufacturer specs, the nearby noise level is 92dB. Since the stock 1.3L is rated at around 71.1dB, this is a massive jump in volume (effectively doubling the perceived loudness twice over!).

I’ve been checking the UK MOT guidance, and as most of you know, there’s no official decibel limit during the test. It’s a subjective assessment where...

Now it's time to have one
Here in Italy there are more 1.3 engine.
On the paper this engine it's more fast than the turbo version but I would like to hear from you.
I've find one 1.3 with 100k km in excellent condition at 8.5k € and one turbo version with 85k km at 7.5k €.

A few questions I have are,
What fuel economy do people get in the real world, I primarily drive in slow moving traffic on my commute and my very thirsty Saab is appalling, anything will be an improvement but I'd like to know realistic figures.

I don’t have a Copen yet, but I’ve always loved these little cars and I’m hoping to get my hands on one in the future. I’m living in Uruguay, so right now I’m just digging around for info and resources on how to actually import one here.
