  • Economy

    Value

    4 out of 5 4.0

    I suspect depreciation may be bad, but maybe I'll just keep it till it starts to go wrong.

    Costs

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Economical (42mpg) and I got a service deal fom the dealer so servicing has been free so far.

  • On the road

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    You turn the key, it goes. You brake, it stops. I like it.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    It was very sluggish when new but now it has done 23k miles, it goes well. It's great on the motorway.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    5 out of 5 5.0

    ...though the brakes seized a few weeks back. The breakdown man couldn't believe he had been called out to an Almera. Our local dealer fixed in in jig time.

    It's a bunnet car. If you want a Dax Rush, buy one.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    It's fine even on long runs, though not luxurious. The passenger seat is less comfortable than the driver's.
