Living with it

never brokedown, probably due to regular servicing, also used v.little oil
Image
still got the 90's presence on the road, possible classic
Comfort
Leather seats were crucial in my opinion, good for long journeys, plus decent boot size. Not a lot of room in the rear for the size of the car.
