    Reasonably cheap car - ok for the money.

    Driving

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Really easy to drive. Pedals well placed. Feels light - would be ideal for learner driver, for first car or for little runaround.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Definately nippy for town use or shorter journeys. Acceleration not brilliant but speedy enough to handle dual carriageways and the like without too much intimidation. :-)

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    5 out of 5 5.0

    So far, so good - been very reliable up to now.

    Excellent quirky car for those wanting something a little off-beat.

    Comfort

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Adequate comfort for type of car. Rear passengers a little cramped though and boot space is a joke - I literally had to force my daughter's small folding buggy in diagonally with no room to spare.
