Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Small and nippy, but if you put your foot down don't expect to get close to the MPG promised.
What's it like to park?
I managed to scrape the back bumper the first week I had it, but it is small and quite easy to park.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
It wouldn't start one morning, but that was due to my having moved it a short distance on the drive the night before and therefore flooding the cylinders.
What's most practical about your car?
Small and nippy.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Er - it doesn't have any.
