A few expensive failures soured the experience of owning one.

On the road
Driving
A fun drive. Spins the wheels too easily.
Performance
Ok, but not as fast as it looks.

Living with it
Reliability
Never broke down, but did go through consumables with alarming speed (brake shoes, front tyres etc).
Image
Some people like it and some hate it in equal measure. Looks good on the road.
Comfort
Good up front. Rear's a place to put people you don't like.
