The Sirion
Now with a 5 year warranty on all Sirions registered between 1st January 2008 and 31st December 2008
Not only do we think the Sirion is a brilliant car but WHATCAR? thinks so too. The Sirion was Highly Recommended in the Best Supermini category in the WHAT CAR Car of the Year 2007 awards.
To add icing to the cake in Test Drive's Car of the Year award the Sirion was Highly Commended in the City Car class.
The Sirion is a 5 door supermini with a range of engines to suit all driving styles. Starting with a 1.0 litre engine for maximum economy, then a 1.3 litre engine for a little more power and finally a 1.5 engine for those who want a more sporty drive. Easy to get in and out of, it is built in Japan and offers performance, reliability, economy, low emissions and high levels of equipment.
Low emissions mean that the annual Road Tax on the Sirion 1.0 litre is only £35 per year.
The interior offers class leading space whilst standard equipment includes air conditioning, integral CD tuner, height adjustable steering column, electric windows front and rear, driver, passenger and side airbags. The rear seat splits 60:40 giving load versatility.
Available from £7,995 on the road
