Ok value for money.

Only insurance GRP 4, which is good as I'm only 20.

On the road
Driving
Excellend drive, superb grip.
Performance
Very good for a 1.4. Lacks tourqe, though, and is poor if the car is full. But if you're on your own it can easily achieve 0-60 in about 10secs.
-
Living with it
Reliability
Ok (touch wood).
Image
People who don't know cars seem to like it? T**s in Saxos take the piss. I like its styling.
Comfort
Ok, I'm 6' 4", so anyone who sits behind me has an uncomfortable ride.

Security and Service
Security
Immobiliser, but vulnerable.
Service
Vauxhall seem to rip me off, especially on styling parts.
