Great

* Costs less than certain couture handbags
* There's plenty of equipment to play with
* It holds its value so you won't lose too much money

Gripes

* You'll feel every lump and bump in the road
* The boot's only big enough for a couple of shopping bags
* Only petite types feel comfy in the driver's seat
DriveDrive rating - 2 out of 5 stars
Things can get a little bumpy and it doesn't feel very stable, so stick to short trips
 ReliabilityReliability rating - 2 out of 5 stars
Seems moderately well-built, if a little short on style and panache
InsideInside rating - 3 out of 5 stars
It's not the most scintillating of interiors but everything's in the right place
 SpaceSpace rating - 3 out of 5 stars
There's plenty of room for people but don't try to get much more than a handbag or two in the boot
SafetySafety rating - 3 out of 5 stars
You don't get side airbags but anti-lock brakes and twin front airbags are thrown in
Standards and extrasStandards and extras rating - 4 out of 5 stars
