On the road
Driving
This thing seems to go round corners at any speed and you get the sensation it steers with its rear wheels as well as the front. Tremendous grip and very communicative steering. Sharp gearbox as well.
Performance
Sees off most hot hatches and sports saloons on the right road.

Living with it
Reliability
Problems with starting when cold, and faluty battery.
Image
Doesn't really need big alloys or bodykit. It looks purrfect as it is.
Comfort
Sports seats are very comfortable and hold you in suprisingly well. Rear occupants won't enjoy the ride as much.
