Pay your money take your chance.

When I say dangerous I mean motorway driving, up hill to overtake a lorry must be and absolute chore.

Depends how you drive really, I spent the other weekend driving about in a 1.2 and it was fine.

Cruise control, Classic FM, suitable.

I found the 1.3 diesel bad enough. Never mind a 1.0.

Be ok if it was only ever used round town though.

Going uphill on a motorway my B used to actually slow down, even if I put it in 4th and had it right on the peak power Can't remember exactly where on the motorway it was, but on the way to the RR day with Fonz we were doing 80 at the bottom and I was doing 60 by the time we got to the top.

My old 12v did the same. In fact i think it done it going down hill as well

It actually used to drink the petrol too. Getting up to the motorway speeds from start/stop etc and putting the pedal to the floor when travelling up hill were the worst for it.

All you pay for is the fuel. the insurance, tax, servicing, any repairs, are all included in what you pay monthly (I think it's around Ł170 a month for a basic 207)

I think theres a little more to it, IE a deposit, the monthly payment could rise depending on tax etc, plus you dont own the car afterwards.
