I bought one of the last built 97/98 model in 2003 and without doubt it's been my favourite car.

It was properly quick, quicker than my friends Subaru's, Golf Gti's etc of the time and the noise was incredible with the 2.5" full stainless exhaust I had made for it.

The perfect business tool 8)

I recently found some photos of it when having a clear out which I'll upload.

I really miss my 166 but don't miss the bills or the sword of Damocles reliability.
