I learnt to drive with an independent instructor in a Suzuki Ignis 1.3 GL. It was very... yellow and I didn't like it. It looked like this:-
Perhaps it was because I was used to my 1.8D Fiesta Mk3 at the time (my GF would take me out in it) and also obviously had little experience, but I found it very twitchy. I found the Fiesta much nicer to drive despite the lack of PAS. Maybe I just wasn't used to "modern" cars at the time, but it just didn't feel right. It felt quite nippy, but my trusty Fiesta was more capable uphill. One thing that really bugged me was that my feet kept getting caught on something above the pedals, although that may have been something to do with the dual controls or something.
So yeah - what did you learn in and did you like it?
