Okay car, underrated but there is a reason why
Owned one from 2019-2024, as a 1st car after getting my license.
Not bad, roomy, sporty drive. 1.6 petrol, 100hp.
But gears are to short, constantly need changing between 3rd and 4th depending on traffic in a 30 zone.
Cup holder to small for cups. The side-bins can’t fit a 500ml bottle. High road tax, not very economical (26-28 mpg in town, 35-38 on motorways)
Not a bad car. But needed something younger so part-exchanged it for something younger.
