Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
After buying the car it sometimes do not start in cold start. One thing that used to annoy me about the car is when slowing down and changing gear to 2nd it used to stall or engine cut out. -Since changed the spark plug and air filler. And it does not do that anymore.
What's most practical about your car?
It small and it has fold-able rear seats. It does go even in down gears.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
The extras electric front window and wind electric mirrors.
