    Good. A lot of space for a 'small' car.

    Costs

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Servicing can be expensive for a small car. Fuel consumption not that brilliant when pushed.

    Ok up front, but not so in the back.

    Wouldn't think it's on any theif's target list.

    After putting a deposit down to purchase the car, the dealer (Coventry Mazda) continued to use it for test drive purposes - very naughty!
