A driver's car with style

The car is reliable and good to drive.

All the controls work well and are simple to use.

The clutch and gearbox are smooth. Performance is decent and I get 55 MPG overall.

Rear vision could be better.

The TS model has reasonable equipment levels including PAS, air conditioning and electric windows and mirrors. The CD player is very good with controls on the steering wheel.

Comfort and space in the front is good but merely adequate in the rear.

The boot size is average.

The car has low running costs - vehicle tax is £35 and it is group 18 for insurance.

The car feels well built with good quality materials.
