On the road
Driving
Excellent on the motorway. Very good grip on the twisty stuff, but it's no Lotue Elise!
Performance
Mine's a manual. It's a solid heavy car, but is pretty quick off the mark and fast on the motorway.

Living with it
Reliability
My car has done 100k+. I had a noisy wheel bearing replaced. That's been it apart from servicing.
Image
High quality understated. Much rarer than saloons or coupes.
Comfort
Firm but comfortable seats, super high quality materials, quiet cruiser.

Security
Mine has no alarm, but I have been lucky so far.
