Parts are cheap and rarely need replacing.

On the road
Driving
Appalling handling at the best of times, but like trying to drive on an ice-rink in the wet.
Performance
Car has to be pushed very hard to get anywhere. Give up trying to get past 70mph.

Living with it
Reliability
Engine never failed to work... unlike the brakes.

Perfect for old ladies, embarrassing for boy racers, but perfect for a bit of individual art work on the bonnet!
Comfort
Hold on, it's gonna be a rough ride!

Security and Service
Security
I locked my keys inside, but had them out again within 30 seconds with a bit of door bending!

No experience.
