      As someone who is currently searching for a first car, Toyota Aygos seem fairly tempting...

    I'm so glad that the "will (person) fit in the boot" test is a regular segment

      It’s the best way to test the boot space!

      From the brief shot, I think 'person getting out of boot' might have been entertaining...

    Love the notebook like the late brake show. Better to know what you're talking about than guess. Great video as usual Daniel

    I rented an UP! some while ago and was very impressed with it - the old cliche that it is all the car you need really applies. It felt really well made, tight and rattle free and was quite refined. As you said, it is more than just a good first car and I would consider one if I was in the market, but I'll keep my Fiat Panda 100HP for the time being. If I were forced to change, I'd probably go for an automatic but I'm not sure that the robotised manual that was offered with these cars is much good, I'd have to try one. I identify with your expression "not-so-smart-motorways" and the fact that the discredited NCAP keeps moving the darned goal posts!

    The Skoda Citigo is the best car I ever had for driving around on narrow, twisty country roads. It has such good "go-kart" like handling, rather like the old mini, but more sophisticated in design. The annoying computer "entertainment" gimmickry is kept to a minimum - at least by modern standards, and the performance of the 60bhp engine is surprisingly lively. Your video I thought was excellent in describing these and many other advantages!

    As someone who had a SEAT Mii FR, these are great cars for a driver, new or otherwise. It had 74bhp and a great sounding 3 pot engine.

    in my opinion the suspension is the most remarkable thing. In bumpy cities its just fine, I would say, a little bit too stiff. But on the autobahn its perfect, even at 150 kph it feels stable.

    The Citigo is a good car.
    Not a hugely dynamic car and won't do a great deal to get the heart racing but far better than most of their competition.

    What a small rev counter. Even a metro has a bigger one. I’m sure that layout could be better.

      Do you think? It’s very hard to find a reliable, rust-free car now for sub £1000 unfortunately.

      @@DanielDrives I reckon its hard to find a particularly reliable car for less than 2 or 3, so Id just make sure you get good breakdown, check everything before long trips, and get something thats already had a few bumps so it doesnt feel the ones youll give it. then the money you save goes towards getting a nicer second car, not just another beater to replace the first when it breaks to bad
