On the road
Driving
Good grip - quick exits from junctions are effortless, handles and feels like a go-kart as you are so low down, fun to drive.
Performance
Very quick, close-ratio gearbox helps acceleration - best above 3000rpm - sounds good at higher revs.

Living with it
Reliability
Nothing has gone wrong yet - rust starting to appear on rear wheel arches though.
Image
Sporting looks- colour coded bumpers, side sills, door mirrors, rear spoiler, fuel cap, boot handle and nice little alloys too..
Comfort
Perfectly adequate for a little sporty car.
