Driving
Excellent. I take the B-roads just for the fun of it. Huge grin factor.
Performance
Keep the revs up and this car will fly. With 5 up, it still goes quick.

Living with it
Reliability
No problems so far, apart from a faulty electric window and an electric brake module, fixed under warranty.
Image
The best 'affordable' looking car on the road, well except for the Alfa 147.
Comfort
Excellent leather seats. All the controls in the right place. May be a bit too jiggley around town, but you can live with it.
