What's it like to drive?

For a 3 cylinder car it was very lively and responsive. It was extremely easy to drive and even took 3 adults from Southend to Birmingham classic car show when the car we were due to go in broke down. I regularly got 60+ mpg out of it.

Excellent visibility, tiny dimensions, no problems!

Have you had any problems with the car?

No, in the time I had it it was extremely reliable.

What's most practical about your car?

Although it was very small we always managed to get two adults, two children and buggy in the car. It was so easy to drive and park as well. It's like a Smart car but with four seats!

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Very basic car with no options.
