Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

  • Economy

    Value

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Good value. High residual keeps Personal Contract Plan rates low.

    Costs

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Fuel consumption very disappointing and way off manufacturer's claims. Average is only 24 mpg. Servicing has averaged £200 each, pretty good.

  • On the road

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Relaxing, fast, long distance cruiser, very sure-footed but doesn't feel sporty.

    Performance

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Adequate, but nothing like manufacturer's claims. 7.9 seconds to 60? More like 9.0. Doesn't feel like 200bhp.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    More individual than a BMW.

    Comfort

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Excellent. 4 of us holidaying through France - 2,500 miles, no problem.
