    Driving

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Its a perfect handler, don't exceed 15" alloys- it will only make it worse.

    Performance

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Its slow to pick up, top speed of about 100mph, then again its only 45bhp.

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Sharp edges/Boxy ""old skool"" look - I love it (lowered suspension really sets it off)

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    For its age it's impressive, the seats are cushy, don't expect luxury though.
