    5 out of 5 5.0

    A bargain! £3k for a car without any rust and a sweet engine.

    Costs

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Servicing costs not too bad. 24mpg attainable.

    Driving

    5 out of 5 5.0

    You don't think you are in a car of its size due to the agility. Fantastic!

    Performance

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Engine has done 162k miles and still outguns some sportscars!

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    The car has never let me down.

    Still atracts the eye with its size, but starting to look its age in design. Can the new-style (pre-2001) headlights be fitted?

    Comfort

    5 out of 5 5.0

    More practical than a Jag or E Merc. Great support from the seats.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Full deadlocks and alarm/immobiliser. Should be secure.

    Service

    5 out of 5 5.0

    The garage I bought it from has great after-care. Prices are cheap and always keen to help answer any questions.
