2 out of 5 stars

For Comfortable, cheap to buy and well kitted out

Against Cabin quality could be better; the "wrong" badge

Verdict A low-cost family saloon. Snobs need not apply

Go for… 2.0-litre LX

Avoid… 2.5 V6

1. The cabin design looks dated, but it’s well equipped, solidly screwed together and reasonably roomy
2. The electric gadgets can be pricey if they go wrong – especially the air-con – so check they all work properly
3. The 2.0-litre model makes most economic sense. It’s gentle on fuel, insurance and servicing
4. You can fit two adults comfortably in the back, although three may find it a bit of a squeeze
5. The boot is large and the rear bench splits and folds to extend it still further
