It didnt say much. Frugal i guess.

My dad was surprised how well it ran once it was up to 50.

Didn't buy from a dealer

Did you get a good deal and why?

It was a cheap car and the newest car i have bought.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

I had sold my car and been without one for a month and couldn't stand it anymore, so i bought this one as it was ok, and my friend had one.

What was the dealer like?

No dealer.

What's it like to drive?

It had a tiny engine, but it was willing and thrashable, and chuckable in corners. It ran better at 50+ than getting up to speed.

What's it like to park?

Brilliant to park. Small, great visibility, very light steering, could fit it in almost any space.

Have you had any problems with the car?

It rusted a little around the door handles, as peoples rings used to scratch the paint due to the weird design of the handle. Otherwise 100% reliable.

What's most practical about your car?

It was easy to drive and extremely cheap to run.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

It was extremely basic. I guess, the way if i folded the rear seats down it would fit my brothers mountain bike in the back when i regularly got a call asking to pick him up.
