Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Poor, the dynamics of the car make you believe it will be a good drive, however this is not the case, there is no feel of the road, the suspension is jaw breaking. The handling and steering is good for the size of the car. The power delivery is poor considering its 170 bhp, and gear changes are not smooth.
What's it like to park?
Fairly easy, but rear visibility is not good due to a high boot
