Driving it
What's it like to drive?
I have always felt it's great, yes it's only a 1.2 to so if you are fully loaded it will feel the pain but to be honest it will still get you where you want to be.
What's it like to park?
Dead easy with responsive power steering and very little blind spot.

It's a nippy little car thats very reliable and when on the motorway cruise control in a car of this class is great.

Theres loads to choose from, Climate Control, electric folding and heated mirrors and of course the cruising control.
