I have owned my 1.6 Tigra Chequers now for over a year and a half and have had no problems at all. It looks and handles brilliant, I think reading some of the comments made speaks for itself, I mean would you consider buying a small coupe if you are 6ft+ or disabled?

I've seen the way some people drive their cars and where they dump them, no wonder they have so many problems. Of course you will get problems with any car, I've seen Mercs BMWs and even a Rolls Royce on the hard shoulder with its bonnet up.
