On the road
Driving
A very comfortable, and easy car to drive, predictable and grippy in dry. Have my doubts about Dunlop SP 200s in the wet though.
Performance
Seems to have longer ratios than most small cars, and so accelerates well.
-
Living with it
Reliability
No problems so far, starts every single time.
Image
Personally I really like the way this car looks.
Comfort
Apart from noise when cruising at 80 due to the engines high revs, the ride, seats and controls are all very comfortable.
