Would recomend this car to the friend
Pros: Good for intelligent driver not longer than 195 cm, who follows traffic rules for 90% and for 110% runs at regular intervals and takes care of his car, so that it don't get chilled (only the best coolant in radiator) and overheated (oil always in level and timely changed, including filters) and on bad roads slowly, large puddles, above ankle should not be crossed.
If need to transfer washing machine or a couch or refrigerator - trunk lid like hippopotamus mouth.
Cons: Could be a bit, a little higher for Latvian roads. Could be a bit, a little economical in terms of fuel, it would be my ideal car.
