Assets
Characterful looks, reasonably practical, some appealing design details.
Drawbacks
Characterless drive, cramped in the back, subject to the fickle finger of fashion, patchy interior quality.
Verdict
Not as much fun to drive as its looks suggest, but perfectly practical if space isn't a priority. If it's a novelty car you want, the Mini is a better buy.
