Summary:
Reliable first car, fun..
Faults:
Radiator leaks, needs re-filling every time the car is driven.
Alternator is stuffed, doesn't produce enough power to run everything on a dark rainy night.
It leaks... especially the back window and windscreen.
Blows lost of smoke, when it stops it needs oil.. roughly weekly...
Stopped for an unknown reason, RAC man fixed it no prob.
General Comments:
It's been a good first car for sure. It's done well for three years, but it's starting to give up now.
It goes pretty hard when you want it too, I'm sure it's surprised a few people.
Fun to drive on gravel or in the wet..
Good sound system, not standard.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Don't Know
