What Car? says
For The Kalos has a comfortable ride, and there's plenty of room for four people
Against It's dull to drive, cabin plastics feel low-rent and has a low Euro NCAP crash rating. Engines are noisy
Verdict
It's a reasonable car, but others provide more for similar money
Go for… 1.4 16v SX
Avoid… 1.4 8v
- 1. Residual values aren't as bad as you might expect, so it's not as cheap as you might think
- 2. It's reasonably spacious and pretty well equipped towards the top of the range
- 3. Some owners report that the front wheels are easily knocked out of alignment
- 4. One or two clutch faults have been reported
- 5. Engines can be breathless and raucous
