Driving
Great to drive, really good handling you only feel that it is taller than the average car in very tight situations, very good grip light steering but lacks feel. Superb gearchange
Performance
1.5 is very eager and not unduly noisy except when really extended, has inproved now it has 2000+ miles on the clock

Living with it
Reliability
Too early to say
Image
It's a family car so not too exciting, but interesting enough to be a little different
Comfort
Seats good, but could do with a bit more shape to them, interior space is incredible and feeling of light and openness in the cabin is remarkable for the size of car, heating and air con fine only smallish boot lets it down

Security and Service
Security
Difficult to say, but it doesn't appear to have deadlocks despite reviews suggesting it does and lacks alarm as standard
Service
Sales service less than brilliant servicing yet to be tested
