Economy
Value
I paid £4K recently for it, but had extremely low milage.
Costs
Very economical. Went from a 1L Mini and it's cheaper to run.

On the road
Driving
Smooth ride. Handles brilliantly on 15" alloys. Sticks to the road on corners.
Performance
Impressive for a 1.1. Can get 58mph in 2nd gear before it hits the rev limiter. I'd rather have a GTi engine though!

Living with it
Reliability
When fitting performance backbox, had to replace centre section due to rusted hole.
Image
Looks good. Would prefer the round arches (GTi/Quicksilver) but, other than that, looks brilliant.
Comfort
Lacks head room, pedals close together and seats quite hard.

Security and Service
Security
Remote central locking and immobiliser as standard - perfect for de-locking.
Service
Just another dealer. Nothing special.
