Good looking and reliable
No express, so not going to win any races, but three cylinder engine is surprisingly smooth once above 1500 revs and car cruises happily at 70mph on the motorway. 100% reliable after 15 years with only new tyres, brakes, rear exhaust box and a clutch and regular servicing. Comfortable seats. Easy to work on. No rust and feels solid - basically a down-sized Golf.
