Driving
Nippy! Would give most small cars a good race!
Performance
Performs very well! Corners never a problem, smooth ride and tweedy engine. Upgrade to biggger wheels though; 15" BBS on mine, excellent.

Living with it
Reliability
Anti-roll bar bushes can be a problem, noisy steering rack and clutch release bearing - Nothing major though.

Front is fine. Back can be a little uncomfortable for tall people, but does the job.
