Fun to drive, but needs to be lowered with bigger alloys as it rolls when cornering.

Can't fault it... 136bhp from a 1.4! 0-60 quick.

Living with it
Reliability
Very reliable, except a sensor had gone on the engine causing the head to be skimmed along with a new cam shaft and sensors!
Image
Small car, but looks good! GT's quite uncommon.
Comfort
Ok for short periods... seats don't give enough hold!

Security and Service
Security
Found the standard alarm/immobiliser fine.
Service
Very poor. They had the car for 2 weeks finding the problem as performance dropped... Head skimmed, new cam shaft and engine sensor £850! Tried to charge me for an injector pipe which they broke!
