Know I’m coming in late but have a very different opinion so thought I’d share..
The fox is my first and only car I have driven for about the past 6 years now, and must admit once you get to know it that thing is a definitely an animal. Might not been on the level of the Lupo, and admittedly does feel slightly clumsy through corners, but it has A LOT more grip than you realise..
Very fun for practicing handbrake turns in car parks, great for bombing through country lanes, amazing handling on A-roads full sending round corners in the rain, good breaking even with back drums can get from 110 down to 70 in a second, 1.4l engine sounds beautiful if you keep it in a good rev range, easy and cheap to fix if something goes wrong. Just put some alloy wheels on so it doesn’t look tacky and get a black one it does actually look half decent.
con’s- too high so when wind blows you feel it, fairly poor acceleration so not great for doing nippy manoeuvres and getting up to speed quick, basic interior, steams up easily.
