Good list of standard equipment.

Fuel consumption resonable. Long service gaps, but very pricey as are parts too.

On the road
Driving
1.6 is very flat and very noisy at motorway speeds. Understeers in bends, even at low speeds - like driving a water bed. Poor gearchange.
Performance
Poor. It has to be revved to get its best. I would not attempt country lane overtaking at speed.
-
Living with it
Reliability
Loads of electrical problems and bodywork faults too.
Image

Comfort
High set driver's seat - small bolster support, although very roomy. Middle rear seat only suitable for petite people.
