Economy
Value
I got it for a sale price, I realise why now.
Costs
The only costs I had were the diesel, it spent so much time in the garage that I didn't have a chance to spend any money on it.

On the road
Driving
It doesn't feel as big as it is when your driving it, the only time I noticed the size was in car parks.
Performance
Its quite fast for the size of it and handled well on dry roads, I'm not so sure how good it would be in winter conditions.
-
Living with it

Problems and Ownership
Problems
Engine
Unidentifiable fault, which makes the car stop, then go for no reason. Only time it doesn't do it is when it's at the garage. Broken pipes meant engine had a complete rebuild, which made the problem worse.
Other
Central locking jammed on, loads of warning lights that can't be fixed because the memory size needs upgraded, brakes regularly lose power,
Ownership
Did you buy the car new?
Used
Would you buy the same model again?
No
Did you buy from the same manufacturer again?
Yes
