Pros: A very economical and reliable car. I would definitely drive it more, but time is passing and the body is not the same any more. With good fuel, the fuel filter has to be changed rarely (I extend the 40k change interval up to 70k). Dynamic car- even with the 1.6D 66kw engine you can overtake other cars and consumption doesn't hit you in the pocket. Roomy boot, three medium persons can sleep comfortably on a tour. Overall, cheap to run, economical to maintain. If you keep it in good working order, it will get you from A to B without a problem.
Cons: The older it gets, the more it rusts. Others may find the seats uncomfortable, but I'm not complaining.
