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

In their own words

This is my first and current car. I bought this car with 77,000 miles. Interior on Dynamique is still relatively basic. Sport style seats are comfortable and suspension feels more rigid as noticeable when going round corners at speed, which makes for fun driving. Pedals are quite high, but mine especially as I need a new clutch (booked in for Feb 2019). Dynamique came with auto headlights and wipers, CD player (no tape). Lacking aircon. Heated rear screen and mirrors. Electric windows to front and manual to rear. I've had a serious faults but none that I didn't expect including head gasket failure costing £600 to repair (didn't have any other options at the time), new radiator and the upcoming clutch replacement and the odd electrical niggle here and there. Would recommend as it's been a decent first car and I've learnt a lot from it, but try to find ones with low mileage and good service history to prevent issues such as the ones I've had.

How reliable do you find the car?

Believe it or not, I got my head gasket fixed. I know, I know. But what's a girl to do?
