    Fairly cheap to run. All problems so far were covered under the used car warranty.

    Driving

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Pretty good - very nippy and handles fairly well. Lots of interior squeaks, though.

    Performance

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Feels like a 1.8.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Not good, so far. Lots of niggles, including sticking handbrake, a dodgy distributor and seized locks.

    Doesn"t look too bad - a bit like an old Astra. Not exactly a top marque, though.

    Comfort

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Not bad at all - the back is quite roomy for a three-door hatchback.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Non-standard alarm seems to do the trick.
