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

  • On the road

    Driving

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Gutless at normal road speeds compared with a low end Clio or Corsa. Auto is smooth at town speeds. On open road not really up to overtaking. Sidewinds and passing vehicle slipstreams very apparent.

    Performance

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Doesn't feel like it can overtake anything. Auto seems to sap the engine power. I'm sure a CVT would have worked better.

  • Living with it

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Frumpy and unintimidating. Bit like a modern morris minor.

    Comfort

    3 out of 5 3.0

    If you don't mind ambling along with the traffic it's comfortable and reasonably quiet. Plasticky interior with strange finishes (and white heater dials that look like 50s throwbacks).
