Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

Not so good if brought from Ford.
Costs
Fuel economy good, but would expect better.
-
On the road
Driving
Very good handling. Put S40 and A4 to shame. Good on motorway and xc roads.
Performance
After running in, engine has good low-down torque for hills and just enough performance to put a smile on the driver. More responsive than 1.3 Fiesta.
-
Living with it
Reliability
Only a few hiccups. Old engine design, so serviced every 5000 miles for peace of mind.
Image
Mixed. Called girly, until people take it for a steer. Beginning to see more and more modified with good results, unlike Vauxhall Nova.
Comfort
Supportive seats, not bad in back once in. Better than 206 in the back. Durable Materials.

Security and Service
Security
Would like an alarm.
Service
Good overall, (brooklyn, Reddich), bit uneasy on giving courtesy cars to 18 year olds (with good reason!)
