Further to my earlier reviews, this car has just passed its third MOT with me - straight through with nothing at all, and no advisories.
Having driven approx 40,000miles in 3 years, this car car has proved remarkably robust, and seems to be better regarded than the Mirage that replaced the Colt.
The 1.1 engine is a gem and seems bullet proof.
Crusing at about 60ish can return nearly 60mpg, but thrashing at 70+ sees economy drop to 48-50.
I'm tiring now of the rather hard ride, and fancy something more comfortable, but am.struggling to think of something as practical and reliable to replace it with.
So ill probably run it for another year...
