Driving it
What's it like to drive?
beautiful, the enigine revs at 3500rpm @70mph on the motorway which doesnt make it that quite however it cuts out alot of road noise. only thing is when it rains you tend to hear alot of rain noise behind the drivers seat ( Obviously from the outside ). Suspention is quite Firm which makes the ride suffer slightly but it goes well and handle brilliantly thorught the bends! and the wipers andm lights make an annoying click when activated but im more than happy to live with it just turn the radio up!!
What's it like to park?
ok mirrors aint big enough!

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
no *touches wood* its only done just under 7000 miles though
What's most practical about your car?
the boot is quite large, and on this particullar level of trim its a 60:40 split rear seat, which folds completly flat. The car's cabin is also alot bigger than the clio's its superseeds 6ft people can sit in it with room, and belive it or not there is more room in the back of my 3door clio than there was in my 5 door 307
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
at £75 option it has to be the automatic wipers and lights
