I owned one of these and the equipment list is generous, although I would advise going for the optional seat adjustment pack and single in dash CD player. The boot is very generous and with the back seats folded down it can easily swallow bulky loads fron Ikea etc. The downside with folding the seats down is that you have to remove the rear headrests, which is fiddly and then were to you store them?
Performance is alright in town and it keeps up with most motorway traffic, although it will struggle if you are on a fairly step gradient in fifth gear. Fuel economy is ok, but does suffer if you drive it hard.
An excellent first car as insurance is low and it has reasonable street cred.
