| Description |
| Sirion started life as a softly styled budget supermini. 2002 brought sportier versions, though these are less successful. But if you want value, reliability and generous equipment you're, it won't disappoint. |

| Contrà´le technique |
| In its original form, the curvy Sirion was an unambitious runabout with an economical but unremarkable 1.0 engine. These cars are cheap now, but they remain reliable and easy to own. Best of the bunch are revised 1.3 cars from 2000, which are far livelier although the power put out by the 4-Trak and Rally versions tends to get the better of the cars handling. Build quality is good, though panels and trim can feel a bit lightweight. Interior space and finish are well below Fiesta/Polo benchmark standards, and rear seats lack legroom for bigger adults. Safety rating is an average three NCAP stars, with ABS on most 1.3 versions. Sirion is easy to drive. It's agile enough around town and at normal speeds, though the 1.0 is less refined at speed. Fuel economy is good, depreciation is not too steep, but insurance is a bit steep for a small supermini. |
| Points positifs |
- Competitively priced, conservatively styled supermini
- Reasonable equipment including air con on most
- Above-average reliability, sensible running costs
|
| Points negatifs |
- Not roomy enough in the rear; rivals offer better load space
- Harsh low-speed ride; fairly noisy, too
- 1.0 feels underpowered and gets loud
