    Can pick them up for next to nothing now!

    Costs

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Reasonable on costs. Just group 14 insurance the real killer!

    Driving

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Drives OK, but nothing brilliant. The 16v model is much smoother.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    0-60 in 9 secs. Not bad, for the money.

    Seen as a boy racer car! Still looks good, since it's a 13 year old car!

    Comfort

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Seats are ok, but would love a set of recaros! Ride is a little hard, cos mine has been lowered.
