That I'm kind of person that likes style and practicality.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

Love how it looks, constantly get reminders how the front looks like an Aston Martin.

Maybe but I'd go for the faster ST-3 model.

What are you likely to buy next?

A coupé or a larger hatchback with more power.

Type of dealer you bought from?

Franchised

No

£12,999

When did you buy the car?

August 2013

Did you get a good deal and why?

For the mileage and the overall condition of the car, I think I got a pretty good deal considering its the one of the best trims, coupled with the best engine.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Needed a small/medium hatchback with good running costs.

What was the dealer like?

Very friendly, didn't feel like I was getting rushed to look at the car.

What's it like to drive?

Perfect to drive, steering is great, ride isn't the most comfortable but it's acceptable. Engine is fantastic, that turbocharged ecoboost is fast and economical, especially for a 1.0l engine.

What's it like to park?

Rear window is a bit small and the rear pillars are a bit thick but nothing hard to cope with.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Covered 3000 miles since I got it, nothing wrong so far.

What's most practical about your car?

Its not too practical but once the rear seats are down there's plenty of space for shopping/carrying biggish items.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

MP3/USB plug in is great, active hill assist is a god send.
