"Brilliant Car I am very happy with my great choice"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Some times my indicator stalk won't click in when the steering wheel is at a certain angle.

Needed a New Bumper skirt as it was catching on some roads and it came off.

General comments?

I have owned the car for just over 8 months from brand new.

As I can't drive manual cars due to me not being able to use the peddls I picked the Sensodrive as it is the closest thing to a manual.

I have been very happy with the car. I had it in Rainforest Green which they no longer do by luck I had the last one.

The 1.6i 16v is very responsive. Its Brilliant for over taking. It is very good on Fuel.

The Gear Box can tend do take a while to engage a gear when pulling away at junctions.

There are some good equipment on the Exclusive which are Auto Wipers, Auto Lights, Cruise Control, Anti Theft Alarm, Child Mirror, Picnic tables and Alloy Wheels.

Since my review the car is still going well. I did have to have a new handbreak lever and cable adjustment. Its really good on fuel now. I had 150 miles on a quarter of a tank. I have had 55mpg out of it at times.

So if you want an Auto which is good on fuel this is a must.

Just over 2 years later, and the car is still going well.

Fuel consumption is great; even on short runs now.

Well Its not long now until my car goes back to Motability in April. I am going to really miss this car as its been a great car to own and who ever has it after me will get a good car as I have really looked after it. I haven't raced or ragged it at all.

I have ordered my next car they no longer do this C3 with the Sensodrive Gearbox so I have gone for a C2 1.6i 16v VTR Sensodrive. I hope it will be just as good as this car. If so I will be a happy man.
