Economy
Value
You get what you pay for.
Costs
Can squeeze 330 miles form a tank with light foot on throttle. Insurance OK, but shop around. Parts expensive.

On the road
Driving
Cruises comfortably at 70mph. Not bad on corners, but can catch you out if road surface changes.
Performance
Does everything I have asked it to do without complaining.

Living with it
Reliability
No problems. Will start after being left for a week at -12 celcius covered in snow.
Image
Not a head turner, but I didn't buy it for image reasons.
Comfort
No "numb-bum" after long journeys. Plenty leg room front and back.

Security and Service
Security
Don't think anyone has tried breaking into it. An alarm as standard would have been an nice extra though.
Service
No problems experienced. Aftersales follow up and help has been very good.
