Summary
What does this car say about you?
Economy and emissions are more important than having a bigger car.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Surprise when I tell them how low the running costs are. Son is just grateful I can be his taxi service!
Would you buy this car again and why?
I would have no issue in buying the newer model (108) but am actually thinking about the 2008 instead, as economy is the same but with full size wheels (and softer suspension!).
What are you likely to buy next?
Probably the Peugeot 2008.

Independent
Did you buy this car new?
No
What price did you pay?
£3,000
When did you buy the car?
July 2014
Did you get a good deal and why?
Yes - the dealer was a trusted local garage and I knew that the car would have been thoroughly checked over. When I bought the car they gave it a full service and MOT as well.
Is there any special reason why you bought this car?
What was the dealer like?
The garage is run by family friends so I got a great (and trusted) service.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Nippy in urban areas, or in 1st to 3rd gear. IT is slower to respond at higher speeds/gears due to the engine size, but still feels solid at 7 mph.
What's it like to park?
A breeze! Not only is it short enough to fit into any space, because the back is almost vertical, I don't have to judge distance to the car behind me.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Not a thing.
What's most practical about your car?
The size of the car is perfect for city parking or squeezing through gaps in traffic.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
There are none.
