    4 out of 5 4.0

    Excellent value for money as a second-hand used car.

    Running cost ok but spares are expensive being a Japanese import.

  • On the road

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Only niggly thing is its very poor turning circle, otherwise more of a cruiser than a bruiser.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Average for a 2 litre saloon car.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Just keeps going on and on. The Co2 emission levels on this car are cleaner than the environmental air - suburb engineering, good fuel economy about 33mpg motorway, urban about 26/28mpg. Handles low speed in 3rd very well.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Good. Plenty of head/legroom, good all-round visibility car comes into its own on the motorway, more of a cruiser than a bruiser.
