Excellent – I bought this car new in Dec 2001, so that was 8 years ago. It still runs like a top and has never given me a bit of trouble. Great buy!! Everything! Gorgeous little 3 cylinder hatchback runabout that is so easy to handle. Fits in any parking bay and turns on a dime. Fuel economy is outstanding - saved me from going broke when petrol prices skyrocketed. Service and parts are inexpensive (hint: this car has the same engine and parts as a ride-on mower so you can interchange them). Adjustable front seat belts, electronic mirror adjustment and central locking. My friends are green with envy. Be nice if it had air conditioning but that would drain all the power. Seat belts do not drop low enough for a petite person like me so it tends to cut across my neck even in the lowest position, but I find a lot of larger cars do that too.
