  • On the road

    Driving

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Positive road holding, quite satisfying.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Responsive, but could be a bit better low down. Fourth and fifth gear performance good.

    Image

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Looks sporty, colour makes a difference, mine is silver and looks more up-to-date than non-metalic colours.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Good front seats, but could do with more lumber support, ride not as firm as Volcane.
