Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Responsive. Very quick for a 1.1i because the fact its a 1.1...i. 0-60 around 11 seconds. I drive around town mainly and its perfect. Good pull up hills aswel. Motorway driving isnt the greatest thing but its not bad at all.
What's it like to park?
So easy. Its small so it fits in any space with plently of room. Park it well though because it dents fairly easily.
