    Value

    3 out of 5 3.0

    OK, but don't pay full price - there's loads out there. Poor standard spec.

    Costs

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Fuel economy isn't amazing. On the whole, cheap to run compared to larger cars.

  • On the road

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Drives pretty well.

    Performance

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Nippy. 1.4 dies a bit up hills. 1.25 probably better (even though its less actual horsepower).

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Not great. ECU failure, suspension humped, doesn't like cold mornings
