| Performance |  | Normally aspirated is a little on the sluggish side..... well ok, a lot.. |
| Design |  | No major complaints. I have the pre 'facelift' - which I prefer. Lots of cubby hole storage. No 60/40 split rear seat, though it is only the base model. |
| Comfort | | Seat comfort, for me is outstanding - a really nice, comfy seat and good driver's position. |
| Safety | | Hopefully will never have to comment on safety! Security is adequate, remote central and deadlocking. |
| Reliability | | Absolutely outstanding reliability. Passed 5 consecutive M.O.T.s with only regular (self) servicing in between. |
| Value | | Purchased second hand, therefore good value. |
| Running | | Quite economical to run. I get 48mpg, but group G in VED band and group 6 insurance (I think) - on the whole o.k., but not brilliant. |
| Problems | Bodywork Problems: | XUD9A (DHY) 1.9 + Bosch diesel pump is outstandingly reliable - provided a regular maintenance schedule - including coolant change is kept. Though a little underpowered. |

| Engine Problems: | XUD9A (DHY) 1.9 + Bosch diesel pump is outstandingly reliable - provided a regular maintenance schedule - including coolant change is kept. Though a little underpowered. | Gearbox Problems: | Good smooth gearbox - could do with a 6th gear though, revs a little high on the motorway in top. |
| Electrics Problems: | Was told French electrics are shockingly bad (no pun intended). I personally have had no major problems so far, aside from a corroded headlight earth connector in engine bay on off side inner wing. | General Problems: | Remember to change brake fluid regularly as rear slave cylinders can fail over time. |
