    Value

    4 out of 5 4.0

    All round very good value for money. Slightly overpriced when bought from a dealer.

    Costs

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Parts are quite cheap. Fuel economy is exceptional.

  • On the road

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Very nice to drive. Comfortable ride. Suspension and brakes are reasonable. However the pedals are over one side - awkward.

    Performance

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Not a performer: little acceleration and struggles on the open road.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    Never experienced any problems (touch wood). Always starts first time.

    Image

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Seems to have a reasonable image - a number of people in my area have them.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Seats are relatively comfortable and the ride is nice and smooth.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Just the locks, no alarm or immobiliser; I had to pay a lot of money to fit these items.

    Service

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Only had something simple done. They didn't charge for it and were very helpful.

  • Problems and Ownership

    At 60 mph the engine sounds like it should really be on a plane.
