Economy
Value
Expensive outlay, but a very good investment.
Costs
I thought an automatic would guzzle petrol, but it's surprisingly economical. £30 = 251 miles.

Driving
To look at it, you wouldn't think it was that great, but it is. 1.8 is more than enough and reserves of power thrust you at high speed with little noise from the engine.

Living with it
Reliability
No problems yet.
Image
New lights on newer models give extra panache.
Comfort
Smooth and stress-free. Air con and sunroof, CD and MD player - have it all: why compromise!

Security and Service
Security
Deadlocks, immobilser and alarm as standard.
