Pros: Low maintenance costs. Parts cheaper compared to other makes. Very easy to repair. Everything is easily accessible and you don't have to tear apart half the car every time, like the Audi B5, B6 and B7. And it breaks much less than the various German cars I've dealt with. You can pass the technical inspection in one go without too much effort. The best car I have ever had myself (the previous two were German).
Cons: Rear axle design with fragile needle-type bearings, which can be replaced individually, but with difficulty and using specific methods. Suspension really stiff and uncomfortable to drive on rough roads. It is difficult to overtake someone on the motorway with a 1.1 petrol.

Pros: Very economical
Spacious (SW model)
Easy to operate.
Cons: Simple. Of the extras, only air conditioning and ABS
Suffered suspension + small wheelbase: Jumps like a goat. On good roads, ok, but on Latvia: after an hour of driving, the joy disappears.
