Vauxhall Agila 1.0i 12v

There are a lot of changes one has to make when they have a baby. The sleepless nights, the stinky nappies, the look of love and adoration from a life form so small and the CAR!! Yep, that is right, the car! Well, my car at least because I had a little sporty two door that I soon realised would not fit the car seat or the pram!!! What was I to do?!! I HAD to get a new car. I needed a "Mummy" car! No IF, ANDS or BUTS about it! Have baby….. WILL travel!! I decided I needed to make a list of priorities on what I wanted in a new car. So I began….. 1- Low cost as having a baby is not the cheapest endeavour in the world. 2- Fit ...  Read the complete review

Fantastic little run a round. Top speed 88-90 miles per hour. Quiet car on motorway (Unlike some small cars). Suits me down to the ground. Perfect for people who need extra height when getting in and out car due too back problems. Bags of legroom. Good wide windscreen.

The real benefit come, not in posing power, but in practicality and economy.This car easy to access ...  Read the complete review

I brought the Agila last year, the reason I brought it was because it was cheap, and as I was a student I was strapped for cash. However during the following year I drove it, however I used to get alot of comments from my friends: 'This car doesn't suit you' 'It looks like a box...' 'It looks like a van ...' Hence I personally don't like it, it doesn't suit the young. However if you want a cheap car, buy this. You get get excellent mileage, if you are careful around 300 miles on a full tank, easy to go through traffic, however rather sluggish after pulling from a red light. After a year I am selling this ...  Read the complete review
