Expensive parts. Electrics are pricey to replace.

2 litre too sluggish. Good grip though.
Performance
Needs the 2.5; 2.0 is OK, but a bit slow.

Living with it
Reliability
Maybe I was unlucky, but it spent more time in the garage than my driveway.
Image
Not as bad as you might think. Impressive from the front!
Comfort
At 6' 2", I was fine. Comfortable and well screwed together inside.
