Summary
What does this car say about you?
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
After my accident they were amazed a little car can protect you that well, very pleased with safety.
Would you buy this car again and why?
Yes. unfortuantly i had a head on collison in it at 55mph, so it has now gone to the car lot in the sky! But i was amazed i got out of it relitively unscathed. The airbag did play a key part in this. Although the car was totally trashed and the engine came back into the footwell, i still had my legs and im 6ft tall!
What are you likely to buy next?
Maybe a ford Ka Luxury?
