Summary
What does this car say about you?
Either I am a cheapskate or I realise its a better deal than a 4 yr old Ford or Vauxhall.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Nohody has said much either way, my wife loves it but its not like I have put a Bugatti on the drive.
Would you buy this car again and why?
So far I have to say yes. Bought as a cheap economical run about and it fits the bill. Racing drivers should probably go elsewhere.
What are you likely to buy next?
Nothing for a while but will certainly look at Suzuki again.

Franchised

No

£6,500
When did you buy the car?
January 2016
Did you get a good deal and why?
Yes, £5k and a ten year old Toyota Avensis for an ex demo car. Car was bought with budget in mind so the price, insurance rate and zero tax fit the bill.
Is there any special reason why you bought this car?
Replacement car for my wife asca local runabout.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Surprising nimble. The expert reviews suggest it is sluggish but it will plod along at 65 all day long without grumbling.
What's it like to park?
Its the size of a tennis shoe, its not difficult.
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
So far all is well.
What's most practical about your car?
Turns on a 5p piece and gearbox is very precise. As a 6 footer I can drive it without discomfort too.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
For a base spec, the on board computer was an unexpected bonus. On a steady local commute shows nearly 60mpg in real world driving.
