Overall reliability
Excellent car for city and suburban driving and OK for longer journeys.
For its price an excellent vehicle. Quiet, reasonably comfortable, fairly economical (around 45 mpg in suburban driving) and mine has been very reliable. The only problem (fixed without quibble under warranty) was a slightly dodgy driver's door lock. Road holding and performance perfectly adequate. The skinny tyres and low weight gave it much better traction and grip in the severe winter of 2010 than many a car costing 3 or 4 times as much. If you want a car to get you from A to B without fuss it does the job -if you want excitement, look elsewhere.
