Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Horrible! The lack of power steering was a key factor in this, handled like a sack of spuds! Engine was quite nippy and had no problems powering up hills.

Ok if you had the whole car park to choose from!!! the lack of PAS made it difficult to get out of tight spaces

back window wiper packed up, something to do with electric connectors on tail. Rear light cluster kept flooding with water in heavy rain, a faulty boot seal caused this.

good driving position, im 6ft and found it comfortable to drive
