Economy
Value
I have added the comfort pack & full leather. For the money nothing else will give you this level of eqipment. In fact a lot of the equipment simply isnt available on its competitors.
Costs
Has not cost anthing other than fuel. One slight problem was fixed by dealer without any fuss. Fuel consumption seems good, averaging 44 mpg

On the road
Driving
Clutch is very light and does take some getting used to
Performance
Although only a 1.6, with 115bhp its quite quick enough most drivers

Living with it
Reliability
So far so good. Only problem has been one of the rear door lock sensors stoped working with the hands free keyless entry system. Dealer fixed it, provided courtesy car & even cleaned mine while it was in free of charge
Image
You either love it or loath it, but unlike a Golf or focus you can't ignore it!
Comfort
Typical French comfort, although rear leg room could be better (saloon & estate offer increased rear leg room)

Security and Service
Security
Alarm & imobilizer seem to work well (in conjunction with the hands free keyless option)
Service
we ordered additional equipment which meant we had to wait 8 weeks for delivery. During this period we had regular contact from the dealer (Dales Cornwall) to keep us informed of progress. Excellent service since too!
