Driving it
What's it like to drive?
I used mine as a motorway muncher and it the sports suspension didn't really make for a very comfortable journery. However, it was fun to chuck around, but the 1.9 engine was really very poor and under-powered.
What's it like to park?
Fine, it's not a particulary big car and visability was pretty good.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
The clutch slowly started to cease. However it had done 129,000 miles!
What's most practical about your car?
I suppose the boot, but considering how big the car was, it the interior felt very crampt and rear leg room was tvery poor.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
The Traffic Alert on the stero - it recorded every alert so you could listen back later on. Never found that feature on any other car. Apart from that, it was pretty basic.
