Economy
Value
You get a hell of a lot of car for your money.
Costs
Most parts can be obtained from a breakers yard and servicing it yourself is easy. However, if you have to buy new parts, try to avoid buying through a main dealer, as they will usually charge a lot.

Driving
Easy to drive. All controls are within easy reach.
Performance
For a car of its size and weight, it performs well. Not sporty, but not sluggish either.

Reliability
Bodywork doesn't rust if looked after. Mechanics will last for a long time. However, electrical faults let it down.
Image
A nice looking car for its size.
Comfort
Extremely confortable. Lots of legroom, however the ride can be a little rough at times.
