Living with it
Reliability
Engine management light came on nothing wrong taken 40 miles to a dealer, a new clutch at 20,000 miles which Daihatsu paid for. If you have trouble then it is very expensive equal to BMW etc.
Image
I love the look of the thing and am satisfied with that.
Comfort
A bit tight in the front.
