Purchased new in 2007 and traded in a couple of weeks ago, this car has been the family runaround, school runs, shopping trips plus the annual UK holiday, days out etc etc. Capable of 60 MPG and with £20 road tax and low insurance it really is a budget car! Saying that, it also pops along on the motorway at a healthy 85mph for hours at a stretch.
No electric windows or central locking or anything else to go wrong, with only annual servicing required it has cost a minimum in repairs during the 5 years, passing 2 MOT's without problems.
Fairly comfortable, I am a large man and probably look more at home in a truck, handles well in all conditions, even on snow I managed to get around.
Downside it is only a 4 seater, and the boot is tiny. That said, parking is a doddle in the tightest of spots.
Would I buy another? Yes, I bought the VTR+ with a few nice extras. Will review when it has done 1000 miles.
