    Pretty good on the whole. They seem to maintain their price if kept in good condition.

    Costs

    2 out of 5 2.0

    At first I thought it was good, but as the months went by, I noticed that there was basically a new problem every couple of months and it was costing me a lot really for such low usage.

    Driving

    It was always good to drive. Fun in country, smooth on motorways and good around town.

    Performance

    Pretty happy overall. Good economy, decent acceleration and nice handling.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    2 out of 5 2.0

    It drove beautifully, but unfortunately it kept developing problems. In just twelve months I had two clutch cables, a new steering column, a new speedo, new brakes and this was from just 3000 miles done gently.

    Alas it is quite old but I still think its a stylish looking car.
