    My car

    Good points:

    Loads of room for us and our dogs. Sliding rear seat system is great. Nice drive as long as you dont push it.

    Bad points:

    Allshift gearbox is terrible. Too much road and engine noise. Stereo is terrible.

    Bought my CZ2 1.3 with the allshift gearbox in March 2008 to use for my driving school. Overall not a bad little car. Its now covered 10000 miles. Only real gripe is the auto gearbox. Very unpredictable gear shift. Upshifts are fine, but down shifts are not as smooth as I would expect. The car also tends to stay in "false neutrals" when downshifting, then it slips the clutch when you want to accellerate out of corners. This results in a slight delay when leaving junctions, and especially entering roundabouts. Because of this major failing i will not be purchasing another one.
