    Value

    2 out of 5 2.0

    I was a bit naive when I bought mine. Don't spend 1k plus! Unless it is an exceptional model!

    Costs

    1 out of 5 1.0

    £100 per tire, £50 to replace the VRN! Absolutely guzzles petrol.

    Good handling, nice whipping it round corners. Bit sluggish on acceleration, but will maintain high speeds quite happily.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Well happy with the way handles and performs.
