    4 out of 5 4.0

    Very responsive, go-kart like handling. Brilliant on roundabouts.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Excellent punchy 1.4 engine. Seems lot nippier than the actual 75bhp. Superb acceleration.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Not prone to 'instant' failures without at least some warning. Gearbox can become stuck.

    Very sporty-looking and now becoming rare. 'Boxy' body shape is starting to look very dated however.

    Comfort

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Seats can be uncomfortable on long journeys. Atmosphere in-car is very pleasent and quiet for a hatch.
