    Security

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Poor locks, but it's hardly a supercar.

    Service

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Both repairs botched by dealer. Paintwork damaged at dealer, front wiper arms mispositioned, driver's door mis-aligned and dashboard trim fell off, all after EMU replacement. Two warranty visits resulted in SIX returns to dealer. Utterly appalling.
