A highly surprising package. Nimble and agile around town, plenty of room in front. Excellent handling and precise steering. Fun to drive with the uprated 70 bhp engine; at legal motorway speeds, this engine is refined and quiet. Overall a chic city car with good mpg.

Great little runabout, good in built up areas and narrow tight streets, also happy on the motorway too. As I'm single and live in a town centre I find this car suits my current needs perfectly. It's fun to drive, very easy to park, cost's little to run and insure. If you're not keen on the whole "car culture" then this is as close to not owning a car as you can get I think and yet still have some comfort and safety too! Maybe only the Smart car would come close.

Simple, satisfying fun at a very affordable price. Consistent 45mpg, £180 a year to insure, no faults apart from a brake recall at 25,000 miles. Practical and entertaining two-up motoring for about 20p/mile - even less now it has almost stopped depreciating.
