Would recomend this car to the friend
Pros: Economic, sufficiently dynamic, high seat. The salon with a high ceiling.
Cons: Misses hatch in summer, passing beam bulbs - few people change them faster than 1 / 2 hours. And God forbid, if any damage to bodywork - so much plastic! In Latvia, this model is not popular, so component may need longer to look.
