MPG is predictably shit, but we ran one for 20,000 miles over 3 years, used it for towing 2.5 tonnes, never changed the oil, never washed it, nothing fell off, paid £1000, sold it for £850. It was daftly reliable.
It's the most appalling car to drive though. Properly shit. The steering is verging on dangerously vague and slow. You get used to it, but nothing prepares you for the first time you try to go round a corner. Even though you'll now be expecting it to be shit because I've written all this you'll still be amazed just how shit it is. You'll almost crash it on the first bend. I'm certain of it.
