Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
Not a good new option, depreciates really fast, but that makes it a cheap second hand buy!
Costs
Not the most economical car, but it's 140BHP so what would you expect, 20,000 mile service interval, and cheap for tyres etc.

Driving
Superb for a car of its class - needs good tyres otherwise it can feel a little nervous at the back.
Performance
Won't set the world on fire, but it's quick enough.
