New Zealand review: Mirage with character (companyvehicle.co.nz)

[MetroMPG]

The reviewer is pleasantly surprised by a car he wasn't expecting to like...

Pros...

- good seating position
- open, spacious interior
- steering wheel controls & Bluetooth welcome surprise in this segment
- engine: enthusiastic and sounds great
- blast to drive in the city, perfect size
- fuel economy "insanely frugal"

Cons...

- don't bother plugging in a high capacity iPod - takes 15 minutes to read, every time
- looks "exceedingly dull" unless you pick a bright colour
- unsupportive seats
- handling not a strong point - body roll and grip

Overall...

reasonably well-equipped for the price, unpretentious, and pretty much the perfect size for city living. Plus, it has ... character.
