Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Concerning power delivery, its the most on/off car I've ever driven, its all or nothing when pulling off which gets frustrating. Performance wise, its nearly there.. but not quite, it needs a bit more. Steering can be heavy and find myself driving my other car most of the time due to this.
What's it like to park?
An effort (regarding steering).

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Water level sensor keeps telling me to ts low when its not (first 3 mins of driving) boost hose has come off on a few occasions, now have 2 clamps on it. Window regulator is going to pack up shortly and I think the gasket is blowing between the turbo and exhaust, that or it has a crack as its a bit tank like until its wormed up a bit.
What's most practical about your car?
Nothing!
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
HIDs, grey leather..
