Living with it
Image
Not much leg room space in rear & the alarm isn't really that loud. Interior is nice with a wooden trim and comfy seats.

Service
Stay away from all main dealers to keep the costs down. My model is a 1.4i 16v Ghia X, with £10 of fuel I can get 110 miles so this is a very economical car.

Problems and Ownership
Problems
Engine
Mine is a 1.4i 16v Zetec SE, it is an excellent powerfull engine. Use right grade of engine oil or tappets will make noises and you will have to replace the Hydraulic Tappets (£300) so be warned. The tappets noise is a very common problem on these cars.
Other
Overall a very nice car with its sporty looks, easy to modify, very nippy, cheap parts, easy to service and over very economical.
