Would NOT recomend this car to the friend
Pros: Extremely comfortable and soft ride with 17-inch wheels. Robust running gear. Looks like a regular car, but at the same time a smart on-board computer reports all problems with the lights, indicates engine oil depreciation, you may know that maintenance is approaching, not counting kilometers, etc. Very economical and at the same time at 90km/h there is no problem with overtaking on the highway. Pretty roomy. Good family car. If you know what you are doing, replacing the lamps, window cleaners, etc. can be done by yourself without the help of a specialist. You can also find a lot of info on the repair things on Youtube. Car does not require special attention, the main thing is to change oil and belts in a timely manner.
Cons: Catalytic converter cleaning system - works at its own pace and often turns on in traffic jams, then the rear can enjoy the white smoke and should not be interrupted by switching off the engine - wait until the process is complete - only engine revs, rear window heating on and a specific exhaust odor. I think if you go out of town more, you won't even notice the process. Note that specific errors from the on-board computer can only be read by the dealer, as the on-board computer software is very secure and not every OBD reader can access it.

Pros: A comfortable, quiet and dynamic little car.
Cons: Error Code 89 coming up regularly. I was hoping that the consumption would be as stated in the technical documentation, but what is stated there is a fudge.
