It drives with surprising composure for its size, keeps running costs modest, and feels like the kind of professional tool that prefers reliable service over flashy showboating.

It won't pretend to be a sports car, but its nimble manners, low running costs and ample personality make it an ideal pick for urban buyers who want fun without pretension.
