Just got one
Ferking love it
I did consider a Corsa (honestly) but the price point was well out for a shed to commute in
£6375 for an 10 plate with 8.5k on it. Filled it up when I collected it...120 miles later and it's still reading 'full'
Oh and It's a white 5 door to keep the mrs happy
Vrooom vrooom
Dear god it's slow though. 3rd gear seems like 5th...and (when i think im in 5th but in third) i'm ignoring 4th altogether
I'm not going to moan about 60+mpg and no rain leaks though

65 in second? No wonder it's slow with gearing that long, what is it a 1ltr or something?

And 3rd, 4th and 5th from what i see...
3 different gears, same forward motion
Door clangs (whatever that maybe) seem ok though
'Drinks'? I'll hire the missus out for £50 an hour for that sort of thing, old enough to be most mummys on here mind

Ha yeah not much to them, great cars for round town though. Diesel ones are worse.
