On the road
Driving
Excellent ride, soakes up the bumps, but can still perform in the corners
Performance
Would have been better seeking a 110bhp, but if gears used correctly the 90bhp can certainly shift, excellent torque and engine really smooth, starting to loosen up now and just gets better the more you drive
-
Living with it
Reliability
Excellent, starts first time everytime
Image
svelte styling, you don't fully appreciate the car until you see another one on the road and think of the presence it has, much better than the other Euroboxes of same age
Comfort
Climate control is excellent, auto wipers and headlights allow you to concentrate fully on the road, seats excellent can do 400 miles in one trip and still feel fresh and relaxed, low wind noise
-
Security and Service
Security
Never been tested, but seems to do the trick
Service
Arnold Clark dealerships have always been great, dodgy salesmen though only interested in sales, but nobody can be perfect
