First drive by EVO magazine.

Overall a positive review. I've always liked the swift sport and the addition of a 6 speed box with improved economy will hopefully result in good sales figures.

I like the fact they have kept things simple. Low weight, no adjustable dampers, no turbos, no stop start.

Test drove the old one. I liked it alot, but the one i test drove smelt of dog. And rattled.
Id love the new one, but this time i want more horses! Thanks for posting.

You want it to smell of horses rather than dogs?

Sounds pretty good! Anyone knows the gearing for 6th? The review makes it sound like its more a 5+overdrive box. I would love that, even if it sacrifices a few seconds on the track. Was one point which really annoyed me with the Lupo GTI. The thing was pretty noisy at speed because of the short 6th gear.

I had a bog stock 1.4 as a hire car recently. Very, very impressed.
