Not sure, its a sporty, funky looking car so maybe a bit boy racer on a budget haha.

No but I would strongly recommend it. Earning more money so am looking to upgrade to a faster hatch.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Good, Can get a bit wobbly and noisy over 75 but have taken it down a few country roads and it holds its own to be fair. Seats are OK. Visibility is a bit bad due to the thickness and length of a-pillar so coming up to blind junctions, awkward roundabouts can require extra looking.
What's it like to park?
easy, but then again so is parking :D

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Not really, changing from gear 1 to 2 and back can be really stiff when cold. Sometimes slips when putting into second??? All other gears good
What's most practical about your car?
Boot size and room up front. Not very roomy in back though.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Ipod connection and integrated satnav stand for the tom-tom (which came with it). Even charges it and turns volume down on stereo when reading out directions.
