"Mr average!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Nothing.

General comments?

When in gear "DRIVE" and stationery, there is a rattle coming from above- annoying.

Horn sounds naff.

Interior is grey and dull.

Fiddly Sony stereo with mini-disc, poor sound quality from speakers.

Does on average 31mpg, around town about 20mpg, poor for a 1.8i.

Very quick especially with the "HOLD" mode which drops a gear to give more power.

Good looking car, sleek and respectable.

Very comfortable and well equipped.

Heavy steering and dull to drive compared to the facelifted 323 2001-onwards, which is as fun as a Ford Focus.

Well composed and tautly controlled at all times.

A MR Average car that is well built, but lacking in character, like a Golf really.
