  • Driving it

    1 out of 5 1.0

    What's it like to drive?

    Well it moves, shifts stuff, stops again. Utterly un-engaging, bland, and a bumpy ride.

    If you can't park this you should give up driving.

  • Living with it

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Have you had any problems with the car?

    The MIL comes on if revved over 4,000 rpm, and it doesn't pull well from low revs - probably crankshaft position sensor? But it still does what I need it to, and was always intended to run on a shoestring.

    What's most practical about your car?

    Folding rear seats gives a reasonable load space. Has the usual power steering, central locking, ABS etc - nothing special.

    Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

    Nothing really - it's 12 feet of car...
