    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Excellent comfort. Particualry good on motorway cruising, which is effortless.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    It ain't a sportscar, but when you put your foot down and the turbo kicks in, it feels like you will go on forever. Drop down a gear and smile.

    4 out of 5 4.0

    You don't look like a BMW to**er, or feel like you don't quite have what it takes in a C180. Unassuming good looks and image.

    Comfort

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Confort is what you would expect and it doesn't let you down. Climate control a bit noisy with the air con fizz.

    Security

    1 out of 5 1.0

    No Toerag with a screwdriver will have it away with this one - full range of security and then some.

    Service

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Pricey and BMW-like idiocy from salesman.
