Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

Value
I feel that it lacked in extras where other manufacturers had them as standard (i.e. airbags all round, ABS and others etc).

On the road
Driving
Handling superb and good drive.
Performance
As a family car, both ends of the scale bottom and top very good.

Living with it
Reliability
I've only done six thousand miles at the moment - very reliable.
Image
It depends on what image you want as a family car, 3 door, 5 door (boy racer style with a big bore exhaust... ha ha ha).
Comfort
From passengers to driver, comfort all round.

Security and Service
Security
Don't know because no one's broken into it yet.
Service
Good when buying the car, crap when they're trying to buy it off you, because they offer silly prices.
