Would recomend this car to the friend
Pros: It´s small, the music system is perfect, economic. I go to school every day and i put 8 euros once in a week so i month it goes like 40 euro to enjoy the whole month. Highly recommend!!
Cons: Theres one big disadvantage only: the clutch!!!!! Be careful everyone. Thats the only disadvantage.. If you dont know how to handle it you might put a new one every year.
