Great

* It insulates your bottom from uneven road surfaces
* A pre-paid servicing package helps keep the lid on costs
* Even the basic cars come with plenty of kit

Gripes

* The handling is woolly and it takes a while to follow orders
* Inside, it lacks the quality feel of European rivals
* The engine whines like a spoilt child
