I got one as a replacement vehicle once, and was quite surprised to find it rather agreeable to drive.
As long as you wring its little neck, and keep the rev counter well above 5,000 rpm, it's much zippier than most of the Pugs and other dreariness out on the roads these days.
Not that that makes it cool, mind, just not the "seriously uncool" one would habitually rate a Vauxhall/Opel at.
