Pretty good for 115bhp in a car this size.

Living with it
Reliability
Very good, but new brake discs at 30,000 miles? Oh and burning 5 litres of oil in 10,000 miles is 'normal'??
Image
Underrated by the press, but has a definite presence!
Comfort
Great. No problems, but a bit cramped in the back!
-
Security and Service
Security
Never really been tested (thankfully).
Service
A vacuum and wash would be nice. Service is always pleasant, but the dealer doesn't appear to have the tools to do a complete job!
