   Hi recently my saxo seems to be a bit sluggish. Just wanted to know something. When i start my car it idles at below 10 on the rev counter just wanted to know if this was normal.

   Yeah mine seems to idle and the rev counter flickers on 10 very very slightly hardly noticeable......but doesn't effect when driving normally at all

   do you mean 1000rpm?
   
   EDIT: Could be your fuel atm. Can make all the difference.
