Ok, 1st post on here. Bought a brand new 1.33 Vvt 6 speed manual in 2010, 5 door. The car never missed a heartbeat in the 3 years I had it. Its final year was spent entirely in France. I had no real problems using a RHD car in a country that drives on the right. Reluctantly sold it having lost my job out there.

Anyway, I'm back in the UK now and earlier today test drove a used version of the same car. Mine had stop/start, this one (late 2009 car) doesn't, but it does beep if I drive it backwards, oh and it has that very much in your face digital odo. Car is spotless inside and out, and the garage will service and MOT it before I pick it up in a weeks time or so. Sweltering day and noticed the aircon not doing much on the test drive. They promised to re-gas it for me.

My 10 Reg car was so perfect, I'm crossing my fingers that this used one (December 09) will prove as trustworthy.

Glad to discover this forum.

Alec.
