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

In their own words

I like the looks of the attitude model and the fact that its rare, alot of people ask if its the 1.6 which is amusing. The car is great fun to drive, easy to service and maintain, and for a 1.3, is quite powerfull, however, it needs to be reved quite hard in order to find the power but is more powerfull than alot of other 1.3 or 1.2 cars. The gearbox has a really positive feel to it, however at rare times, it does need 2 attempts to go into first, or reverse. The interior is really well thourght out being very spacious for a small car, it has lots of cubby holes and trays to store stuff as well as a small glove box, although the boot is really small. The plastics have a slighly cheap feel to them, but they are a good quality. The stereo had a good quality feel to it and the sound from the speekers is good with a good range of sound, all the switches and buttons have a nice quality feel, and the red LED displays are cool and very clear. The speedometer has a white background giving it a sporty feel, and the seats are comfortable. The car is a bit expensive on tax, but is quite good on fuel In all an inexpensive great fun car to own.

How reliable do you find the car?

I had the input shaft bearing wear out which made an awfull clunking sound in 1st and 2nd and was expensive to repair
