Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
I personally feel that I got a great deal here. Good value for money.
Costs
I have only speculated about costs of parts etc, but I have heard a lot of bad stuff about costs, although it hasn't broken down yet, so I haven't needed to buy.

On the road
Driving
Excellent drive all round. Would recommend to all.
Performance
This is a 1.6 and it goes pretty fast! Power steering is good for cornering and suspension makes a good ride.

Living with it
Reliability
Like I said, it hasn't broken down yet so I got to say 5.
Image
With the alloys and the spoiler and its new curvy shape, it looks nice. My Rover is black, which I always think makes a car look good. :)
Comfort
Ok. This is the only Achilles Heel. While the drive is good and performance is top drawer, I sometimes a feel a bit cramped and also I haven't sat in the back, which also looks a bit tight.

Security and Service
Security
A leaf fell through my sunroof and set the alarm off. Unbeatable.
Service
Pretty decent. When I enquired about Rover approved audio equip, the guy told me it would be cheaper to go elsewhere. Handy if nothing.
