For It's cheap, well equipped, and flexible

Against It's cramped, short of safety kit, and poor to drive

Verdict Not a bad car but the same money will buy a much better one

  • 4. The boot is a decent size
  • 5. Look for face-lifted models (from July 2000 on), as not only are they sharper looking, they also come with more equipment
