One of those cars you always try and clock the driver as they are guaranteed to be a female, same as a Fiat 500.

Delivered one the other week, nice car. Cheap too.
Astra convert is fairly queer though, so that is worse.
Same as StreetKas, I think they're boss, but I'd feel a complete gay driving one.

No. If you remember the one that was in TV a few months back on schmidt wheels. It was genuinely one of the most beautiful cars ever.

Can't speak for all models but my missus 1.2sxi was horrible. It had the eps rather than mechanical. Terrible, all light no feedback, mushy suspension , one of the worst cars iv driven.

It's not wrong you like Tigras but it's wrong you like Mitos and then Tigras.
Tigras are incredibly bland, look cheap and vauxhall quality
I think they mechanics for the roof are pretty prone to problems also

Pow, honestly DO NOT get the 1.4.
It is slow beyond belief.
The 1.8 IMO is the only one to get.
Even if you do not want to go fast, the 1.4 is just shocking in terms of hill climbing power, over taking power, any thing related to wanting to go somewhere slightly faster than a snail.

And when is that a problem for the target audience?
I never once thought when driving either of my C's, you know what, this steering doesn't have enough feedback for going to work.

If all a car has to do is drive you might as well get anything and at the same time fire all car journalists and remove all car reviews in existence.
If we are talking about mums and daughters then yes I'm sure it's great, but last time I checked pow or myself are neither and i'm pretty sure we and a great many other people out there, look at more than it just getting us to work and back. Like you were when you bought that Porsche.

Look what I've started! I've recently made my commute 2/3rds shorter and I miss the MX5 for the roof off option but the running costs of that thing were horrendous. Plus taxing and insuring it was a fortune for the lack of miles it did.
I'm past wanting to spend big money on cars now, I'm just concidering one as an short term, cheap to run, bit of fun option. The missus can use the MiTo this year as shes commuting much further.
Will drive a 1.4 and take it from there. If I do for a 1.8 I might as well go back to the running costs of the MX5 and have the superior car.
