• Summary

    5 out of 5 5.0

    What does this car say about you?

    It was bought for practical reasons to teach my daughter to drive and then give her the car afterwards, so it says I have thought about insuring a car for a 17 year old!

    What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

    I really don't care in the slightest what t hey think.

    Would you buy this car again and why?

    Yes. I tried a Fiat 500 - great but too girly. And at group one insurance this is a clear winner.

    What are you likely to buy next?

    Range Rover Evoque.

  • Driving it

    5 out of 5 5.0

    What's it like to drive?

    Great in town and round the lanes, but does get a bit more tiring on the long runs. I drove it £600 miles in the first three days after buying it and it was okay but a little noisier and bouncier than longer wheelbase car.

    What's it like to park?

    Very easy and good visibility.
