2.2 Sport Diesel 5dr Hatchback

Firm, but sporty ride

Bought this car in July 2011 and so far it has been very good value for money. The Sport edition is quite different from the step-in version in terms of equipment and to some extent the engine power as well. The car flies through curves and handles very well. It is quiet most of the time, except on very bad road where the 18" wheels bring some nice.

I have not had any problems with the DPF at all, even though I drive mostly 10 miles and far under 2000 rpm in most cases. The car has run over 3000 miles as I am writing this. I also have another person in the family driving a 2009 Advance 2.0 diesel version, and that car has passed 40000 miles. Still no DPF troubles on that one either.

To sum it all up: fill the tank and drive... And remember to bring it in for service every 12500 miles.
