Driving it
What's it like to drive?
It's OK to park, but my mum's picasso has got a better turning circle! I always need to get into 3rd gear as going up a not very steep hill at 35 in 4th makes my car feel like its going to roll backwards
What's it like to park?
As I said, my mum's picasso has got a better turning circle!! But it easily fits in the spaces at my workplace.

Needed new tyres after 3 months of purchase, the tyres were replaced 1 year prior to that

The fact that it is quite small, and it gets me around.

Let me think, the electric windows as that's the only form of cooling down in warm weather!
