Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Great fun, handles superbly. Nice having " only " 126bhp with a great manual box which means you have to work the engine rather than too much power with a boring auto box as per my previous cars. So much more involving.
What's it like to park?
No problem. Not the best turning circle.
