    I haven't heard any negative comments, the car isn't noisy or problematic so all neighbours are impressed.

  • Driving it

    3 out of 5 3.0

    What's it like to drive?

    As expected with cars of this age, it has lost some power and the gear change could be smoother. It isn't the most economical on fuel so running costs are bit of a problem.

    What's it like to park?

    The steering and turning circle are quite good for a car of its size. Rear view and mirrors are functional for reverse parking.
