Driving
Fun, fun, fun!

Will lose most cars off mark. VTRs are no trouble... best top end so far is 115 on the digital speedo (dial was reading 120).

Living with it
Reliability
Had 1 prob the day after I got it, but other than that it's very reliable.
Image
Cool looking car, although it's developed an image of a girl's car.
Comfort
Poor. Sport seats are crap. Invest in some real seats.

Security and Service
Security
Can't comment really - hasn't been broken into yet. Alarm, immobiliser and remote double locking sounds good though.
Service
Very, very helpful (Benfield Ford Leeds).
