Overall reliability

Excellent to drive, average mileage. Awful sat nav and other quality issues..

Had this car nearly 4 years. 47K on the clock.

Pros. Best car I have owned for driving. Car holds the road well with low road noise. Very reliable, engine never misses a beat, only one warranty repair required for faulty door lock motor. Reasonable fuel economy.

Cons. Sanyo Sat nav is absolutely useless, loses position on regular basis, failed outside warranty, apparently this is a common fault on this model. Alloy wheels suffering badly from corrosion. Rear light clusters gather unsightly mould around rims which is difficult to remove without removing unit. Car seats are comfortable but are not hard wearing and are starting to fray.
