Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Simply amazing! There is no bodyroll and it grips and grips in the corners. 180bhp with 200bhp on overboost makes this a very quick car. I laughed in the face of a BMW 5 series driver who tried to tailgate me. All done without exceeding 70 naturally.
What's it like to park?
Easy enough but the turning circle isn't the best.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Early days yet so nothing so far and fingers crossed for reliability.
What's most practical about your car?
Reasonable boot space but this is a hot hatch rather than a family runabout.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
The seats are just awesome and the heater in them works ultra fast.
