On the road
Driving
For a small 1.25 litre car, I've never driven anything better.
Performance
Decent take off, comfortable at high cruising speed, and fuel consumption as you'd expect it to be. The Zetec engine is VERY smooth on such a small car.

Living with it
Reliability
Never gave us a problem - not even once.
Image
May not be as pretty as some as its rivals, but Ford is always going to be a tough contender.
Comfort
OK, so I never sat in the back, but it feels like a much bigger car when cruising on the motorway. We took it halfway accross France twice and no-one moaned!
