On the road
Driving
Handling is fantastic. Will outhandle and brake many other cars.
Performance
Bearing in mind it is the lower output 1.4 K series it still feels quick and lively, 2nd and 3rd gear provide a reasonable punch.
-
Living with it
Reliability
Only returned for build issues (front indicator filled with condense)
Image
Great looking car percieved as a car for the elderly, which is rather unfair. I'm 17 with a brand new car which generally speaks for itself, and anyone whos actually been in the car agrees its very smart.
Comfort
Good. Has the comfort pack, meaning you get the half leather, drivers height and lumbar support, adjustable wheel (leather trimmed), rear centre armrest and rear headrests. My model has many of the features from the facelift that has now replaced it.
