The car had low mileage and just one owner from new. Knocked £70 off as it needed two tyres are they were close to limit.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Needed a little car to save on fuel.

What was the dealer like?

What's it like to drive?

Nice to drive, quiet engine too. It's quite nippy for a 1.2. This car is built for short trips. If it had a 6th gear it would be good for motorway. As when im on motorway it sits at around 3000-3500 at 70mph.

What's it like to park?

Easy, very easy.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Sunroof leaked so I had to tape it up. Due to the water getting in I now have an electrical fault. The rear wiper will just come on at anytime, the boot got full of water with the leak down the rear light.

What's most practical about your car?

Small, easy to park. Good on fuel too, I'm getting around 48mpg, that's mostly town and around driving with odd motorway drive. On motorway with 4 people and 2 suitcases it managed 52mpg.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Automatic headlights and rain sensors.
