Reliable & Cheap To Run

Great little car, with pro's vastly outnumbering the con's. Whizzed through 7 MOT's without a problem, ideal for Devon's country lanes, driven this car all over England and France without any problem, including holiday stuff/guitar/laptop/bedding and two smallish dogs!
The cons are is it is not so good on motorways and steep hills, high revving to progress but smooth up to 70-75mph. I get depending on the road conditions 30-34mpg. Cheap to maintain as it rarely goes wrong!
I would but another without hesitations, preferably a VVT model or similar!

Ps. Careful on the colour, the red version is prone to colour fade/sun bleaching!
