petrol 1.5 Sport

An overlooked small hatchback truly rivalling the Jazz

The engine is strong, the car accelerates well and performs well in town, country or motorway. Space is
good, the aircon effective and the accommodation very versatile incuding easily removable rear seats. The ride is firmish and you do feel the potholes. Handling and roadholding are fine and you can hustle the car enjoyably on 'B' roads. Third gear is especially good for swift safe overtaking taking you smartly to 70mph. The gearbox is smooth and accurate although engaging reverse from cold can produce
a graunch. Visibility is slightly hampered by the A pillars to the front.

Six years into ownership and even with 115000 miles now on the clock the car still gives pleasure and the purchase has never been regretted
