    3 out of 5 3.0

    Group 7 insurance. High dealer prices- best to shop around and buy private.

    It's French- expect things to go wrong.

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Good fun as a first car, will lose it's appeal quickly though.

    Performance

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Not bad for 90bhp. Has to be revved hard to get the most out of it.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    So-so.

    Nice looking car, tragically championed by chavs and appalingly 'modified.'

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Poor. Suspension is harsh at best.
