    OK, so it likes a tipple, but who cares when you plant your foot and leave a Porsche while on the motorway.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Been great. No fault except the exhaust manifold gasket went and threads snapped, but did head gasket at the same time so all is good. Even with 140k on the clock.

    Problems

    Engine

    It needs to be driven to understand how good it is for a four pot, power and smooth to boot.

    Other

    If unsure about these cars in anyway, drive one and see. You may change your mind once you feel the smile on your face. How many cars are there, that will hit 200k easily and still have the original turbo? Not many except pretty much any Saab…
