    What does this car say about you?

    Nothing much, just that I'm a fairly new driver. I think you're not really that fussy when its your first car - you just want something to get you from A to B and that's cheap.

    What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

    They like it, say its great for my first car. Still, even if they hated it i wouldn't really care!

    Would you buy this car again and why?

    Yes or maybe the Up as its newer, its cheap so if I was in need of car it will always be a possibility.

    What are you likely to buy next?

    Not really thought about it. Completely happy with this one at the moment!

    When did you buy the car?

    April 2013

    Did you get a good deal and why?

    It was in very good condition except one little crack in the windscreen which I knew about, and had a low mileage so yes.

    Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

    It was my first car and I needed something small with very low insurance, but that was also not too expensive to buy or run.

    What was the dealer like?

  • Driving it

    5 out of 5 5.0

    What's it like to drive?

    It isn't noisy and handles fine. Gear changing is usually smooth although that could also be down to my lack of experience! Great in town as can go slow in second or third so if you suddenly have to slow down you don't have to change down a gear.

    What's it like to park?

    Great as it will fit in all spaces and still have room. Makes it brilliant for beginners who aren't that good at judgement.

  • Living with it

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Have you had any problems with the car?

    Nope, needed windscreen replacement but knew that when it was purchased.

    What's most practical about your car?

    It is small so can park in any bay and very small road spaces.

    Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

    Lots of cup holders and space to put things like phone/watch. Would have been remote lock but it was an optional extra and as it wasn't new, it wasn't up to me.
