First Month /1000 Km/miles In My New Aygo....

[ytareh]

Generally very happy.Absolutely no faults although dealer did forget to include owners manual and service book but can collect it anytime so no big deal.....Did scrape the underbody- sounded a lot worst than it actually was thankfully...-slowly mounting a kerb,ground clearance must be very poor.Oh and the high boot loading lip is a TOTAL pain.Fitting in a few bags of groceries is like threading a needle....

MPG a slight letdown 52/51.6 and 51 mpg on three tankfuls .Granted this included quite a bit of motorway driving at a bit over 80 at times and I have been giving her a bit of welly at times.And yes the engine note doesnt sound any less sweet.....!I suppose at more legal speeds 60mpg might be possible-might try restrain myself next week and let you know...

All in all doesnt sound as if Im delighted really does it?However Ive left the best till last .HANDLING is amazing -in the Ka ballpark- which if youve driven one will mean a lot(Ka handling was actually better than the Pumas -I had both in the family at the same time)Ka probably grips a bit better but Aygo lets go a bit more controlably/progressively.And all this on 155s!!!???UNREAL!You forget the car is almost the lightest mainstream small hatch since the Citroen AX its so well built -until the sidewinds that is ,although as a driving enthusiast a bit of a gust doesnt unsettle you that much really ,couldnt be sure yer gran might agree though...

Oh and the brakes are unbelievably good...

Overall verdict ?Very happy....

Im not really missing the rev counter that much either.....an expensive specced up Aygo misses the point really surely?
