Pros: The car is very comfortable, especially suitable for summer season. Really comfortable and roomy car both inside and luggage compartment. The engine is quiet. Easily controlled, there is no visibility obstructions from cabin. A big plus of course climate control. Of course one of greatest pluses are cheap parts. A small annual tax. The engine si simple as constructor. Easy to get to repair everything in engine and suspension.
Cons: Rust, corrosion, rust, as Jap. It is, but you have to fight it, if you want to save car. Some small issues often bursts with suspension and brakes, but as details are ridiculously cheap just have to find reliable and cheap service. For service shall meet once every six months to heal and then, around 100-150 Eur to leave.
