Thought id give my twingo a quick review:

Looks - 4/5

It fairy sporty, has a hot hatch look too it, mainly due to the Wolfrace Asia Tec 17" wheels and wider tyres the top is fairy high it could do with loosing a few inches and the silver spoiler makes it look a little bit like a shopping cart, but it is much better than the standard GT

Driving - 3.5/5

It gives me a good bit of confidence to push it, minimal body roll and fairy sharp brakes, make it fun on B roads but the ride isnt jaw breaking and on smoothish concrete motorways its an okay 60/70mph cruiser, can feel slow off the turbo boost however and the speed sensitive steering lacks feel

Reliability - 4.5/5

everything you cant see seems to be drilled together and sealed nicely, engine is fairy smooth any problems ive encountered were wear/tear or the previous owners negligence, however the car does look a bit frail underneath.

Practicality 5/5

Easy 4 passengers and all their crimbo presents, rolling/flattening seats are great good headroom too

Running costs - 5/5

Easy 35mpg with a good push, i return 50mpg with careful driving (90% of the time for me) brakes, tyres, bulbs etc all common sizes 1 yr or 11,000 miles servicing keeps the car in shape.

Price :

Very low picked mine up for 4,500 but i have seen them sub 30,000 miles for 3-3.5k which is nothing compared to similar hot hatches.
