    Like someone else said a lot of car for the money.

    Costs

    So far very reasonable.

  • On the road

    Driving

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Lots of road noise combined with an unrefined engine makes long distance commuting a bit painful at times.

    Performance

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Not really a ""Sporty"" drive. Lack grunt.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Two wheels ""cracked"" within a couple of months causing motorway blowouts. Otherwise seems fine.

    Good looking car. Lacks the kudos of other makes.

    Comfort

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Ok - as someone who drives 20K + per year the engine a road noise gets you down after a while. Seats are good.
