Friendly and happy to negotiate with me.

What's it like to drive?

Sublime, handles amazingly, a little tail happy but it all adds to the fun.

What's it like to park?

You learn to use your mirrors.

Have you had any problems with the car?

I bought the car with 96,000 miles, runs smoothly, no issues in the slightest. Could use a new clutch but that's to be expected.

What's most practical about your car?

The boot is larger than expected. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to use it for work as I do a lot of building site surveying. The boot fits all my gear including a level staff, tripod and has room for more.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Engine, as it's my daily drive I like to cruise but when you want to go a little quicker hit 6,000rpm and the car shifts like a dog being stung by a wasp!
