Sporty little hot hatch, but doesn't look like it. My wife says it makes her look good.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

Like the car, love the look of it.

Would you buy this car again and why?

I would buy this car again as it's a great little car, drives well on A and B roads, and also performs well on the motorways. Ride is a little bumpy but that wouldn't put me off. Gearbox is not as positive as i would like but still not enough to stop me buying one.

Independent

No

What price did you pay?

£4,995

Wanted a small but nice car for my wife

What was the dealer like?

Not really willing to negotiate, and the buying process was terrible.

What's it like to drive?

Great to drive, nippy engine which pulls well and corners like a little go kart. The only problem is the ride, it is a little bumpy.

What's it like to park?

Parking is easy as the car is quite small.

Have you had any problems with the car?

The only problem we've had since buying the car is the windscreen washer fuse blowing.

What's most practical about your car?

It's not really a practical car, will take 4 people in reasonable comfort but the boot is not large and 5 people is a squash.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

The multifunctional computer in this car is great, tells you all the information you need to know.
