Soft riding, yet fine handling hatchback with superb steering. Improved for 2012 with new chain cam 1.2TCe 115 petrol engine and excellent chain cam 1.6 dCI 130 diesel.

Some interesting new engines, especially new low emission 1.6DCI 130. Less practical coupe is better looking. SW most practical of all.
