Hi
Mine's a 1.25 2 in Electric Blue it's a handsome beast and i love the quality of the ride and smooth engine (not too slow either keeps up with the traffic ok) a little bit of road noise but generally quite and only noisy on poor surfaces.
Not a biggie but i have noticed it can be a little jerky when pulling away in 1st if you don't get the revs right not sure if it is common to this model but have read similar in test reports,maybe the 1.4 does'nt suffer with this?
MPG is really good at 1600 miles about 44 average and that's only a small amount of M'way and mostly town driving.
One niggle a little rattle has appeared around the face vents when going over rough ridges in the road will have to book it in to the dealers soon,otherwise i'm well chuffed with it and no doubt every buyer will be too....
