Summary
I have been married with my wife with this car too. This is our first car and have been in service for 3 years for my wife + 7 years for my family. There is not much problem if you use it wisely with the routine maintenance and care. It only incurred the low cost mileage fuel and low maintenance with the cheap price of spare part if any broken. Overall, it is good to use for people who always think about the cost. This month will be the last month that the Viva serve us and I am glad for using it until now. Thanks a lot VIVA Orange!
