Advantages: none

Disadvantages: expensive parts, few dealers

I,personally would not touch another of these awful little "cars" with a bargepole.
The indicator lights would fuse every time I put the car in reverse,unless I kept the petrol tank virtually full {This is a serious comment - I AM NOT MAKING THIS UP!}.
I got a crack in the petrol filler cap {which is a dealer part} & had a 48 mile round trip to buy an £8 replacement.
The solenoid on the central locking blew,necessitating replacing the locks {they come as a sealed unit} costing £600+ {i didnt get the work done,they locked manually}.
The ball joints wore,the drivers sidea was easy to replace & cost £70,the passenger side however came complete with arm cost £700.
AVOID THIS CAR & THIS BRAND LIKE THE PLAGUE!

The car was 3 & a half years ago when I got it.I had the car for less than a year & it cost me more to keep this car on the road for 1 year than my previous car had in the last three.The scarcity of dealers is also a problem with this make.They are cheap to buy but will work out more expensive in the long run as parts are dearer & dealers more scarce.
I was just trying to offer balance,& would not recommend this make to anyone.

Welcome to dooyoo. Apart from the many faults, you didn't actually tell us much about your car. :-) Have a read around and enjoy the site.
