Very good. Speed when it's needed, and handling is excellent. cruises well, and is pretty quiet on the motorway.

Depends how big the space is. Generally no problems.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Occassional niggles after I bought it, eg Master brake cylinder was difficult to change. Hand brake cables sometimes freeze in winter, but new ones have cured that. Cam belt cost 450 quid, but won't need doing for a while...Rear brake calipers needed changing, but hey! It's well worth it. My car is now immaculate, and very rare for anything to go wrong. Like all cars - look after it!
