The mirage feels more like a car and less a toy to me and with the combibation of cvt gear it feels realy smooth and quick driving around town, i feel that driving in highway is more difficult for the mirage, i mean it get the speed limit and even above with not any hesitation but its more great than the pegeout 107
107 was a fun car to drive eh, I can see that. Here in Canada many more people have big trucks etc. and Mirage's look more toy car beside a truck. But it's all relative. Cool taht you went from last gen city car the Peurgeot 107, to the newest city car generation the Mirage.
I find the interior of the Mirage seems like a very refined car. Many small cars have gimicky interiors. Tacky stuff. Look at the Fiat 500 with the exterior colour going into the interior. They think they will sell more that way. I'm sure your Peurgeot was like that no offense you know they make the Mirage interior classy and understated. All black and white, simple controls.
Also just reading up on the 107, the 3 cylinder diesel with an auto would have been slow. Acceleration that was like 80s Chrysler minivans, the first ones with the carburators. Glacial lol
