Summary

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Surprisingly lively. Always felt much nippier and torquier than you would expect looking at the figures. Was always enjoyable to drive.
What's it like to park?
Easy, although I was always scared to scratch it as it wasn't mine. Being small was ideal, any space could be squeezed into.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Nothing, servicing was also cheap.
What's most practical about your car?
Fuel economy. 600 miles on a 42-litre tank (driven sensibly) is a definite highlight.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
The AUX plugin along with all controls within reach of the wheel.
