Generally ok but a bit slow in lower gears.
Performance
Poor in low gears unless you put in the revs, struggles at higher speeds on the motorway. Good for around town only.

Living with it
Reliability
Very 'chuggy' on a cold morning, had some problems with it cutting out when stood idle at lights, junctions etc, or not starting at all after a few short runs.
Image
Alloys and trim improve the look but nothing near as nice as the Renault sport version.
Comfort
Front seats are ok, good height adjustment, but the back seat is tiny and very cramped.
-
Security and Service
Security
Immobiliser, no alarm, seems sufficient.
Service
Poor! Difficult to get in to Service, very ready to take your money but not at all helpful.
