No PAS, but steering is light with loads of feel.
Performance
1.4i is very lively, but more power would be nice for motorways, hills and midrange driving.

Living with it
Reliability
Never failed in 3 years, though eats front tyres for breakfast and likes new exhaust boxes every now and then.
Image
Older (curved) model is less dated than revised (boxy) one.
Comfort
Seats are more like benches and engine is noisy on long motorway hikes.
-
Security and Service
Security
Unlikely candidate for theft, but immobiliser and alarm fitted.
Service
Pricey. Required change of door locks and had immobiliser disconnected.
