Very poor, evertime my car went in for repair it came back with more faults - some of them safety related - problem with brakes squelling - their answer was simply to remove the shims, windscreen wipers failed so car went back they did'nt adjust the wiper stroke correctly, also didn't come back with an arial!!

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
OK but it tends to get cold when windows just drop, and very diffcult to direct when the widscreen wipers pack in and it starts to rain! Not an enjoyable experiance.
What's it like to park?
OK, but not brave enough to park it in the river as that's the only place fit to park such a poorly built / designed car!
