Overall satisfactioin rating 4
 

Pros:

Fuel economy - 40mpg all urban normal, 48mpg all urban economy. 570 miles per tank all urban, 620 motorway. Good pickup, reasonably comfortable, feels solid, well made. Superb motorway cruiser and good around town. Much quicker than people think.

Cons:

Wallowy suspension, can be crashy over bumps, turbo lag at low revs.

Comments:

Overall a very comfortable, economical and relatively quick car. Not quite a hot hatch but faster than I was expecting when I test drove it. Feels solid, well put together, only minor reliability issues being sensors in engine. Nice car to own.
