Other half had one for three years. We actually really liked it. Only had the IQ 1, so basic everything but it did have air-con.
Only issue in 40,000 miles was a leaky door seal which was done under warrenty.
Ours had the 1l engine. Its not quick. Takes a while to get up to speed on the motorway and feel’s very light on there, but it wasnt designed for long distance driving. Its absolutly perfect for around town. Obviously economical.
There is no boot. There is a gap which will hold wine bottles nicely, thats about it. Lowering the rear seats gives you something usable. Forget about having anyone in the back unless you put the passenger seat forward.
Interior is nice. Much better than the Aygo. Infact when we were looking to replace it, we really struggled to find another small car with the same quality interior. Its a nice place to be, and this is why alongside its reliability they are more expensive than its counterparts.
You can get a bike rack for it! 😆 The Saris Bones 1 fits the rear nicely.
If you test drive one, go in a carpark and put full lock on the steering. It literally spins round on the spot. Quite amusing!
Sadly they dont make them new anymore. Looking back we’d probably go for the 1.3l version though and take the slight hit on actually having to pay £30 road tax instead of nothing. The extra power is probably worth it. Stay away from the auto box.
