    Dirt cheap to buy.

    Costs

    3 out of 5 3.0

    All general items like tyres are cheap, but can get expensive if something major is needed. These costs are balanced by incredibly cheap cost to buy.

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    So comfortable - you can drive for hours and get out without the slightest back ache etc.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Surprisingly good for such a big car, provided you don't want sports car performance.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Electric windows and remote alarm always seem to be a problem but ALWAYS starts first time.

    Hatch with rear spoiler and alloys looks classy in my view and although they have a duff image, people don't believe you pay so little to buy.

    Comfort

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Tons of room for whole family, or put the seats down and there's enough room for a Granny annex.
