    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Handling is good, even being used to a Saxo VTR! No power steering makes life tough. 1.2 engine is nippy enough.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Engine is good. Brakes are excellent if a little 'snatchy'. Good even at motorway speeds.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Feels tough, no mechanical problems. Levers fell of front seats and required replacing.
