If you're in the market for a new car our Tried And Tested column should help you decide. With so many brands and types to choose from, it can often be quite hard to know which car is the right car for you. From testing them out on the motorways to driving around the back roads of Ireland, we give you the highs and lows of many of the market’s leading brands. So sit back, relax and get ready to go cruising… This week, we headed to Monaghan for a training session with a difference. _______________________________________________________ Heading up for a tough and strenuous training session with Monaghan ladies football team, the Seat Mii by Mango was certainly tested out. From the easy smoothness of the motorways to the twists and turns that led down the country to Westmeath we asked some hard questions of this car, and got some pleasing answers. Small and neat The epitome of city driving, the Mii is ideal for anyone who wants to nip in and around a city with ease of both parking and driving. Stands the test Taking the car out onto the bigger roads – and indeed, on to ones with more twists and turns then an Agatha Christie novel – the Mii lived up to and exceeded expectations. It's also very easy on your pocket. The power to surprise For all the fact that it is extremely compact, the Mii by Mango has a few hidden surprises from handy handbag hooks to slots for your parking ticket and if you opt for the panoramic sunroof, you will want to keep on driving all day long. Road-tripping What is perhaps the most surprising thing about this car is that there is only a 1.0 litre engine tucked under the hood. This car has plenty of power and will get you from A to B without too much exertion. Styling it up There’s a lot of optional extras you can get to truly pimp out this car. From tinted windows to heated front seats to the aforementioned sunroof, you’ll feel a million dollars driving through town. No frills, no fuss There are no unnecessary frills on the Mii by Mango making it extremely user-friendly. The dash is simple and easy to use, the gears extremely smooth and it definitely passes our comfort test! Colours of the rainbow Anything linked with Mango we knew would have to be pretty stylish, and the fun really kicks in when you go about picking your colour. Our favourite has to be the Night Blue, but Tornado Red, Sunflower Yellow and Silver Leaf are also some of the top picks. Our star rating? A pretty decent 3/5. Why? For all the ease of driving and friendliness to your pocket, we knocked a few points off this car for the boot. We know the car is perfect for nipping in and out of the city and for those pesky parking spaces (it’s a lifesaver for those!) but when it comes to a week’s grocery shopping combined with gym gear and other bits and bobs, boot space is an issue. As usual, we will leave you with our favourite… http://youtu.be/CtwJvgPJ9xw Video via YouTube/ChamillionaireVEVO
