    £2500 for a car that originally cost £3200 - mustn't grumble.

    Fuel consumption at 22mpg is reasonable. It's really the difference between this and the cost of running a smaller car. You have to spend something!

    Not sure about the legendary smoothness. Mine seems a bit 'urgent'. I always seem to be fighting the auto box in traffic.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Adequate. Good at traffic lights in sports mode.
