Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
£10,000 car equipment level poor; had to pay extra for everything.
Costs
Heavy on petrol and oil. Servicing £250 at dealer but I get it done somewhere else, threatened to void warranty when I took it somewhere else.

On the road
Driving
Very bumpy and rattles a lot. Great round corners, you can chuck it round and it sticks to the road.
Performance
Doesn't want to know as soon as you hit a hill, have to work the gears. Otherwise great.
-
Living with it
Reliability
Sometimes won't start straight away. Otherwise good.
Image
I still like it, got the 17inch straight alloys. Get noticed a lot more.
Comfort
Only drive it for 2 hrs at the most, my legs and back start to ache. Passengers say its comfy.

Security and Service
Security
Immobiliser and alarm. Had my wheels nicked 6 months after I got it.
Service
I try and avoid going to the dealer, they make my blood boil. Weren't interested when I wanted work doing on warranty. Overall very poor, not surprising seen as they've gone bust.
