For a little car like this, it is easy to get blown away by its performance! yes it may have only 100 or so kilowatts BUT every other car in its class has from 50 - 90kW so this one is ahead of the game! so although no traffic light dragster, it has the uncanny ability to put a smile on your face when you put the foot down and arrive at the speed limit! brakes are fantastic, handling wise, it just grips the road like a cat thats got a grip onto curtains. Overall, it is an awesome car that allows you to have fun within the law and has the ability to sip fuel when driven efficiently (the trip computer at one stage said 3.9L/100Km!)

I loved the look of the car, this is what drew mw to it, I did test drive one, but a short drive around the street is not like living with it day to day, the engine is harsh, unusual sounds from under the bonnet, injectors ticking loudly, transmission harsh until it warms up, auto, like the interior, the steering is precise, engine not very willing up hills, dealership support nearly non existent, warranty, don't know yet, would be a great car if they spent a little extra on the mechanicals, would have been prepared to have paid extra if the whole package was good, unfortunately it is far from this, would I buy one again, no, would go for a better brand, disappointed in a great looking car.
