    Fun around town, acceleration good on motorway, but noisy.

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Not bad mpg - 41 on motorway & for 1.6 16V which is nippy that's not bad.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Don't get me started - although to be fair I think I bought one that had been hammered this car has cost me a fortune. Electrics, cam belt - all major expensive stuff & not even had it a year!
