Good. The city button is a nice extra. 6 Gears is awesome.

Quite nippy, could do with a 1.4 16v.

Living with it
Reliability
Never failed me in 2 and half years. Once flooded it by running the engine for less than 10 seconds. AA came and fixed it in 30 seconds. AA Cover for 3 years with car.

Excellent. People look.

Fairly comfortable.

Security and Service
Security
Got broken into at Liverpool Airport very easily, just removed lock barrel and unlocked with fingers, took stereo!
Service
Weird really. They never really fixed a steering and roof lining problem, got bored of taking it back.
