Superb handling on dry roads - you'll lose it before the car does!
Performance
Nippy enough. Not much top end, but hey it's a 13 year old 1.6!

Reliability
Often needing something fixed. Usually minor, though and parts are cheap.

Dire nowadays! neds, baseball caps and bass boxes. Used to be better when I bought mine!

Ok. Zero legroom in back.

Looks easy to get in to. No one has ever bothered with mine, though.
