Economy
Value
Hold their value well.
Costs
OK but always something little needs doing.

On the road
Driving
Nice to drive, although steering is a bit heavy. Loud on the motorway.
Performance
Better than any other 1.1i. Outperforms the new 206 and many other hatchbacks with bigger engines.

Living with it
Reliability
Never let me down apart from an idle problem recently.
Image
Looking dated but can easily be spruced up.
Comfort
Extremely comfortable up front - not so much in the back though.
-
Security and Service
Security
Non as standard. Fit an after-market Cat 1 alarm. Mine now has remote c/l plus alarm/immobiliser.
Service
OK but expensive…
