    Proper car with rear wheel drive. You can really drive this thing into the corners!

    I've actually had girls waving & blowing kisses at me in this car! Must be the car's image though!

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Very supportive seats, but poor feet room in the rear. Mind you I don't sit there!

  • Security and Service

    Security

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Terrible. Nothing on it at all. Don't park it up anywhere, other than in my garage.

    Service

    5 out of 5 5.0

    I've only had one service at a franchise dealer (Tices) and I can tell you, never again. £480+. What a rip off!
