Summary
What does this car say about you?
That you wanted a car that was cheap to run and you bought one. Also that you are not fussed about performance or optional extras.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Couldn't care less. It just kind of blends in, my sisters both drive Micras which I think they prefer... I think I do aswell.
Would you buy this car again and why?
No, it just feels to cheap on the inside and that has started to annoy me. Things like: The tiny boot, Plasticy feel, The interior.
What are you likely to buy next?
Something I little more comfortable, I could get a X-Type Jag for 8 to 10k so I might give that a go. It would certainly be more stylish and a lot more comfortable.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Not that thrilling. I find it to be a little noisy and the ride isn't that comfortable, especially on motorways. The clutch and brakes are good, but I do find the gearbox a bit vague at times.
What's it like to park?
Very easy! No need for parking sensors, as soon as you sit in the car its very easy to tell where the bonnet and the back end.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
No, but it is only 7 months old. So I would be a little miffed if it did.

Cheap to run (55mpg), cheap to insure and tax (£35).
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
None to mention, its pretty basic.
