I bought this 2 years old and had a few problems with it and I'm guessing the previous owner didn't take the best care. After a new transmision was installed (under the warranty) the car hadn't given me much problems it's been reliable Doesn't have a lot of power but it gets you where you want to go. 120 km is the most this car will comfortably go on the highway and that is more than what you need. It does get up to 140 but I have never gone beyond that. I live in cold end of Canada and my car reliably starts on those cold mornings. I use studded winters and with those installed i can drive through most storms. Back seats are not very comfy but I fit well into the drivers seat. I really like the size of the hatchback. It's roomy enough.
