    i really like the look of the newer hatch with the lip kit and spoiler on it, fir the price they cost they seem a pretty good compromise

    Drove a 1.4 and they're actually not that bad. gearchange is nasty and the interior is dire.
    Never been NCAP safety tested but as it's based on an old design it wouldn't be that great.

    I had the misfortune of having to drive one for an entire day last year and it was crap. Nothing wrong with it but nothing to remember , except for the fact the fuel consumption was God awful for the size of the car.

    New or used there's so much better for the same money ;)

    No worse than a Kia Cerato or Hyundai Accent though.

    A chevy/daewoo lecetti uses the mechanicals from old opels so they are pretty reliable and very basic.
