On the road
Driving
Brilliant. I compare every other car I drive to it and haven't found a better one yet.
Performance
great round town. Nothing has kept with me yet, but looses out to the modern 'hot' hatches (Civic Type R etc.) in a straight line.

Living with it
Reliability
Not a single problem in 2 years (this car is 16 years old).
Image
A bit 80s, but I'm inside with a big grin on my face, I don't have to look at it.
Comfort
Seats a comfy for cruising (although with the engine behind you head it's a bit noisy) and keep you pinned when your not.
-
Security and Service
Security
Not much as standard. I've added an after-market system (cut the insurance down big time).
Service
Can't comment - I've never been near.
