Overall reliability

Amazingly good allrounder

What can I say? A fantastic car, for an amazing price with amazing mileage.
She is such huge fun through the twisty bits, stacks of room, excellent ride, perky performance, stands out from the crowd.
Some of my friends are not sure about her looks, but others love her as do I, and after all she is MY car lol.
Decent economy, such a pity Daihatsu have left Europe, as I really would want to replace her (in quite a few years time) with another one.
Dead easy to park due to massive door mirrors, high stance and parking sensors.
Very well equipped, she turns heads and is always commented on.
