Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
A lot less money than a Golf for a lot more.
Costs
Tyres are very soft - you'll pay about £300 per 6-9 months on tyres! Cheap servicing but expensive parts.

Daft fun.

Reliability
Again never a problem, only tyres need checking and replacing regularly

You do end up with boy racers trying to drag you off at every set of lights.

Seats are not bum-friendly on long journeys, but sports seats are good for cornering.
