Ok, so I have had my Up! white now from mid june. I have done so far 5000km which is around 3100 miles. It ncludes some long drives to meet some relatives and friends during my 4 weeks summer holiday.
I have to say I have no bad things to say about my up. Sure there is the usual small car gripes with road noise and such but overall I am really happy. I have driven everything so far from small country roads to highways. At highways at 120km/h (80mph) it tends to give a little bigger consumption, 6,5l/100km but it still is lower than my previous Mini gave at lower speeds.
My main positive thing is that it really feels like a bigger car when you are driving a longer stretch. I was driving 850km (530miles) to meet my grandparents the other day and my mother who owns a Skoda Octavia Station Wagon actually said it feels better than her car. It was a great compliment to my little up!
Since I don't have a great need of space and my main drive is to work 20km away I have to say that this in the second best car I have ever owned. The first place goes to my back in the day Peugeot 205 GTi and you can count part of that to the actual nostalgicity
Actually the only negative thing I have to say about my Up now is that it is filled with birch seeds after I left my work after night shift and not really thinking when I open my panorama roof.
