Economy
Value
Avoid paying double figures and depreciation lessens enough so that you need slit one wrist only.
Costs
Averaged 33MPG over past 12 months, although this is with one leg out of the door to push on the flat.

On the road
Driving
Fabulously average, although much better than my last car which was a Mondeo Ghia.
Performance
The Hilton of motels. Take the average of mediocre and ordinary.

Reliability
Like Ali G. Still surprisingly good 12 months later.
Image
As cool and desirable as Reg from The Bill.
Comfort
Actually, the CDX has an excellent spec including cruise control. Shame leather wasn't standard.
