Economy
Value
You get a lot of car for your money.
Costs
Running costs good, only needs regular cheap oil changes etc.

On the road
Driving
A lot of road noise and the ride is very firm, very tiring on long distance routes.
Performance
Not the fastest car in the world but once up and running, can stay in top gear all day.

Living with it
Reliability
This is my best car by far, I have covered in 6.5 years 248000 miles, the car has never failed to start and only once did I limp to the garage, was when the cam belt pulley was about to pack up at 120000 miles. It just drives and performs like new
Image
The car has no image, but it will last many years and then you really love the car
Comfort
Seats very good and lots of space, I am 1.93m tall and its only the high road noise that fatigues me.
