    Bought this car privately for just £3800 in good nick with just 16k on the clock. I think that is very good value.

    Economical, cheap tax, cheap insurance. Mustn't forget tyres though, they may be costly.

    Driving

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Very smooth, involving drive, good round corners, leather steering wheel feels chunky. Let down by annoying dash rattles.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Sounds nice, goes well and doesn't feel thrashy. Could be a little quicker though.

    Looks good, you cant tell it apart from an SRI except for badges. Shame about the chav, boy racer image though.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Good seats, nice position, good visibility even with 3 rear head restraints. Difficult on motrways though as accelerator foot starts to ache when trying to maintain constant speed.
