It won't win style awards, but its sensible kit, simple controls and low running costs make it a smart, unfussy choice for buyers who want function over flash.

Value for money is its strong point...
Avoid the 3-cylinder petrol and the 1.3 mjt 95 hp — far too little to move 1,500 kg, very sluggish in acceleration.
The only and excellent compromise is the 1.6 mjt2 131 hp; despite weighing 1,500 kg it moves it with plenty of ease and verve (9.5 sec 0–100 km/h), giving real satisfaction.
