On the road

The most fun you can have on four wheels at a sensible price.
Performance
Just so much get up and go - but you need to let the engine spin up the revs.

Living with it
Reliability
Maybe I have been lucky, but I have experienced only one problem and that was soon fixed.
Image
About as cool as you can get at the price. It makes BMW and Merc drivers look really stodgy.
Comfort
Great driving position and comfort - best I have ever had. Passengers always remark favourably on the comfort as well.

Security and Service
Security
Good standard of factory-fitted security systems.
Service
The service garage was rather amateur in its admin, but when they did a job they seemed to do it well - Ryauto in Knowle now Guest.
