Can get a little noisy in the car over rough road surfaces.

Simply stunning for an 80 bhp diesel, cruise at 96mph at 3000 rpm plus superb midrange punch for safe overtaking.

Living with it
Reliability
Bit early to tell, only covered 3000 miles.
Image
Love the looks, especially the rear end.
Comfort
Ride is very firm, but then most modern small cars are, suggest running tyres at 2 psi less than spec.

Security
Alarm as standard would be nice, but standard immobiliser is good.
