    Costs

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Slightly thirstier than I thought a 1.8 would be, but not unbearable. Money well spent.

    Smooth auto box, good driving position, glides along.

    Performance

    1 out of 5 1.0

    First away from the lights every time, and plenty of acceleration in kick down when needed.
