November 2011

Did you get a good deal and why?

Reasonable deal. Managed to get £400 off the advertised price. Salesman was very helpful. Spent time showing me round the car when I picked it up.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Wanted an economical small car that drives well and is refined for motorway journeys.

What was the dealer like?

Brought several cars from this dealer. Always happy with service.

What's it like to drive?

Handles brilliantly and is really comfortable and refined. This is the first supermini that actually feels like a much bigger car.

What's it like to park?

Steering is very light at low speeds so parking is a doddle. Rear window is small so visibilty isn't the best.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Not yet.

What's most practical about your car?

Car is spacious enough for a supermini. Only me using it though so practicality not likely to be tested.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Quite like the Bluetooth voice control. It actually understands the commands you give it which is good and saves the need to use a headset.
