Gearboxs I guess work, but every one I've ever looked at or driven has had tonnes of play in the busy under the stick and corroded control cables. Trying to get 5th gear is sometimes not even worth it, just leave it in 4th. 2.3t 260 variant (standard) loves just chucking back fuel. Wondered if a remap might sort it out, few cars previous was a 9*3 with the b205 and some mods made it approx 260bhp, certainly handled better but its a slightly smaller car, before remap it wasn't bad on fuel, after, wow, a roads at constant 55 to 65mph you'd get 42 to 45mpg. Id call that a win.
Took it to croft once, including faff mileage, averaged 12mpg, i think that's decent. Mate on same day had an evo iv or v (white and late 90s)with some mods, he ran out of fuel in the 4th session lol.

I’m yet to sit in a more comfy seat than in my 95. It beats any bmw, Audi, Tesla, Volvo, vw I’ve ever sat in. Apart from that the car is pretty meh and it sure rattle and squeaks a lot and it costs a fortune to tax.
