The Aygo is a cheeky city car that turns congested streets into a playground, with bold styling and sprightly manners that make parking a pleasure rather than a pain. Economical to run and surprisingly well equipped for its size, the Aygo is a smart choice for urban buyers who want personality without a premium price and a car that brings a smile to the daily commute.
