Driving
Simply, it's great. Doesn't stop pulling, handling is amazing and the ride is reassuringly hard, due to the lowered and stiffened suspension. It's a fun car to drive.
Performance
The 1.3i engine is a little rev happy, but it kicks out 100bhp as standard... drinks about as much petrol as my old 1.8 Sierra, though. :-(

Living with it
Reliability
Pretty reliable. Usual wear and tear items have needed replacing, brake pads etc... Front suspension and a drive shaft broke about 6 months ago, but nothing since. Still on its original exhaust!
Image
Looks good inside and out. Sits a little high off the road and could do with lowering an inch or two. White wheels are hard to keep clean!
Comfort
A nice ride, but a little harder than you might be used to. Front seats are excellent. Also seats three in the back.

Security and Service
Security
Immobilier as standard.
Service
Local dealers/specialist garages are far too pricey.

Problems and Ownership
Problems
Engine
Cam belt and water pump have been replaced. Had incorrect sparks fitted when I bought it.
Other
White steel wheels are prone to rust and are a nightmare to keep clean. White hammerite is good.
