My daughter's boyfriend has had one (107 version) since 2007. Nice enough to ride in even in the back and Miss B reports it to be an OK drive as well. They went to and all the way round the Outer Hebrides in it, with tent etc, a couple of years ago. Boot is pretty tiny if rear seat is in place but will still take a folded Brompton Bike or a few squishy travel bags. More than can be said for some Corsa versions.

The 3cylinder engine has an odd rasping note when pushed. Some might love it, others not. Small tank and fuel consumption rising rapidly with speed menas it needs frequent fill ups on longer trips.

Agreed, the only thing at motorway speeds is that there is a lot of road noise, and most of it comes from the rear end where there is no sound insulation whatsoever over the wheelarches and round the boot floor and side panels (as with many modern cars).

A couple of hours work and £30 worth of self adhesive soundproofing transforms this, i have done so to the family Aygo as well as one or two other cars, the difference is amazing.

Apart from easily improved road noise its a cracking little car, cheap parts and mega cheap tyre size, but get one with aircon there is a lot of glass involved.

Ebay, if you want some i can hopefully find the seller on my history, roughly £30 was enough to make a decent job of the tiny Aygo rear end and wheelarches where all the noise comes from, also enough to put a pad under each front door skin and two pads left over.

If you're being picky and don't really want to proof you're own car please don't put me to the trouble to find it.

Self adhesive insulation/soundproofing pads, these are the same as the ones i bought and from this seller, cut to shape, have done the job well.

I shall start a quick new thread about this, it might be useful to some.
