Kinda thinking of G10 into a Tracer wagon, because great utility in a small durable package and also a/t delete.
Swapping the 1.0 for the 1.3 shouldn't be as bad as the swap from 1.9 to 1.3 though if I find a good deal on a (local) g10.

I hear you on the utility. I really want to redo the tail as a hatch like basjoos has on his. I could hardly get the coroplast sheets in the car (folded hotdog style) through the front door.

I was talking to someone and they said the 3 cylinder lasted forever. How does that compare to the 4 cylinder? This one has ~150k on it.

Missed opportunity to say one of my motorcycles has a bigger engine than my car though (KZ1100)
