    All things considered you can't go much faster for less and still have a very practical car.

    Costs

    3 out of 5 3.0

    The only down side to wanting to drive it just for fun is the fact it will want to drink petrol like an alcoholic beer monster for the pleasure.

    Will make you take the longest route to where ever it is you have to go, or sometimes even when you don't have to go anywhere at all!

    Performance

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Have recently been saving up for plastic surgery to dilute the permanent grin whilst behind the wheel. 4wd system is almost flawless, corners are always tackled with accuracy and feedback. A good turn or pace for a heavy 4wd motor.
