If its just temporary get the one that you can make money on
RE: So change of car for many reasons.. - darrenjlobb - 13-11-2013
Im driving a 1.0 AX atm on a carb, tbh, bit of induction work (all free) and adjustment to the ignition timing, and is a right hoot, it weighs so little that believe it or not you can have a lol with a 1.0l!

at that rate, I expect you'll be riding that senda next
RE: So change of car for many reasons.. - John1.4 - 13-11-2013
well both will do roughly 45-55mpg, the 307 will have more power but more weight, and i for one much prefer the interior in an ax - and i think it'd be better in the snow - go AX imo
RE: So change of car for many reasons.. - puglove - 13-11-2013
Id go for the AX myself, much more lol's t be had with a 1.0 AX than a 1.4 307........ the 307 is never going to put a smile on your face
RE: So change of car for many reasons.. - Sian - 13-11-2013
Remember guys i wont be snow drifting the ax with my two daughters in the car haha!
RE: So change of car for many reasons.. - Dum-Dum - 13-11-2013
Id have the AX any day of the week, they are like a cooler 106/saxo, they weigh absolutely nothing and parts are stupidly cheap. Got a casual eye out for a 1.4nad ax at the moment.
RE: So change of car for many reasons.. - itone24 - 13-11-2013
the ax, i have owned two gt's and loved them both, awesome cars!
RE: So change of car for many reasons.. - Toms306 - 13-11-2013
The 307. With children in the car that should be the safer option.

Yeah was looking at safety ratings and what not lol
RE: So change of car for many reasons.. - jamie23 - 13-11-2013

Just what I was going to say...
RE: So change of car for many reasons.. - itone24 - 13-11-2013
With kids defo the 307, i would never have taken mine out in my ax, its like a crisp packet with wheels lol!
RE: So change of car for many reasons.. - Sian - 13-11-2013
Yeah the ax looks like a bean can! Just as bad as a saxo! And the 307 has 5doors bonus!
RE: So change of car for many reasons.. - Dum-Dum - 13-11-2013
TBF, from a safety point of view, the AX is far worse than a Saxo, theres less metal the seats are shit and it's pre Euro NCAP.
Only an issue if you crash though.
RE: So change of car for many reasons.. - Poodle - 14-11-2013
Much as the ax is clearly the better car, would have to say the 307 is best for your situation. I can't imagine your girls will appreciate having to help de-ice the inside of the windscreen every morning through winter for starters lol.

The Ax, 106 & saxo are all based on the same shell but with different panels bolted to them....
Your point still stands however; they aren't a safe car to cart the kids about in!

Yeah and living in the farmer village lols i dont fancy meeting a landy in an ax lol! Its a cool little thing cheap to insure and run but safety wise no

RE: So change of car for many reasons.. - WiNgNuTz - 14-11-2013
Im split both ways on this tbh. As a parent, half of me says get the 307 for the safety aspect, but the petrolhead in me says the AX for all the above reasons!
