In their own words

I traded an underpowered 1.2 Rio for the larger 1.4 engine. The Rio is well engineered and has all the extras for comfortable and relaxed driving. The only thing that I changed within the first few months was a new set of tyres. The OEM tyres gave a hard ride and were excessively noisy. I have had no other items replaced except wiper blades. Annual servicing have been carried out by the franchised dealer where I purchased the car under a service plan. Likes: Cruise control, light pedals and steering. Smooth ride for a small car. Not an outright drivers car like a Fiesta but can hold its own on the open road. 7 year warranty. Dislikes: Front seat squabs a little on the small side and lack of adjustable lumbar support for the driver. Front passenger seat set too low even at highest setting. OEM tyres. I had a Rio and Fiesta on my short list. I think I chose the correct one
