Great

* You’ve got to love that price. How do they do it?
* Tight turning circle and easiest ever parking
* Very cheap to insure, service and fuel

Gripes

* A shock to the system if your other car's a Porsche
* Very soft ride means scary lean if you take bends too fast
* The driver's seat doesn't adjust for height

More sponge than Mr Kipling, but some of us like a nice bouncy drive that irons out lumps and bumps in the road
ReliabilityReliability rating - 4 out of 5 stars
It's not going to cost a king's ransome to repair, service or insure
InsideInside rating - 3 out of 5 stars
Not for car snobs, but not unpleasant enough to make your teeth itch. Plasticy, yes, but pretty well everything is where it should be
SpaceSpace rating - 3 out of 5 stars
Enough room for a weekly shop and three passengers so we can't complain. Cabin feels light and pleasantly roomy
SafetySafety rating - 3 out of 5 stars
Two front airbags only for the Charade without any option to upgrade to side or curtains too.
Standards and extrasStandards and extras rating - 4 out of 5 stars
What do you want for this sort of money? Probably not as much as Daihatsu give you, that's for sure. Great level of equipment including central locking and cd player
