    It’s great to drive, handles really well, has loads of grip and little body roll. The handling more than makes up for the firm ride, due its sports suspension. There’s always power to spare makes overtaking easy. Engine is responsive ever if revs drop. The steering is well weighted at speed, and easy in town.

    Small wing mirrors, but other than that it’s easy, just have to be careful of large alloys
