Best review I can find on the 1.4......

Personally speaking I would have gone for the bigger engine. The car though is quite stylish (colour excepted) for an estate. :y

Thanks for your input, Henry. I did quite a bit of research before buying and, weighing up the pros and cons, thought it would meet my needs adequately. :y
Still haven't given up on a big, old luxury barge to footle around in later in life, but that would be totally impractical at the moment.

Oh yes, they are pretty good cars and a competent drive but, the 1.4 NA engine is to be avoided.

Been and picked it up. It's an unremarkable little car, but will serve my purpose.

Heart thumping it is not, Mr Opti  ;D
