Special deal from the garage gave us excellent value

Fuel economy is a little disappointing for a 1.6, but it's not the worst out there

On the road

Great car to drive, easy to drive and good for parking and city streets with the speed-relevant power steering
Performance
Good acceleration - out does my previous 1.8 petrol

Living with it
Reliability
It's only 6 moths old, but certainly no problems yet
Image
Looks good. We have the dark back windows, alloys and twin sunroofs. Lesser Meriva owners are envious
Comfort
Front seats very comfortable. A bit narrow in the back if you have 3 adults. With 2 in the back, moving the seats in and back gives loads of shoulder and legroom and makes the back very comfortable

Security and Service
Security
I don't know why Cat 1 systems are not standard in all new cars, but this has a cat 2 which is cheaply upgraded
Service
Dealer were very helpful and great to deal with. We haven't had the car serviced yet
