Driving it
What's it like to drive?
The steering and handling are great, although the ride is hard and the brakes are poor. The engine is smooth, responsive and sounds great. The performance is tame by modern standards but adequate to enjoy the chassis. Great fun to drive but it can get tiresome on long journeys.
What's it like to park?
Poor turning circle and limited visibility hinder parking.
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Several glitches with the internal air blower, windscreen washer jets, and alarm, but no major mechanical failures.
What's most practical about your car?
Good rear seat space for a coupe, and reasonable fuel economy.
