    Comfortable and quite powerful - no real moans, just a little jumpy on the brakes.

    It's not a Merc, but then again, it's not a Fiat Uno !

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Smooth and quiet, but again let down by jumpy brake. Excellent stereo with steering wheel controls. Height adjustable seats make all the difference as I'm over 6 foot.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Excellent. Deadlocks and good alarms, but mine is faulty I think as it keeps going off, so unable to arm it at the moment. Cheap to fix, though.

    Service

    Tang about the mirror and it came two days later! Bargain!
