  • Economy

    Value

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Picked mine up for a steal (sold an 'R' Neon and bought this with cash left over).

    Costs

    3 out of 5 3.0

    No surprises. Consumption good (comparing the Chrysler which required too much gear changing).

  • On the road

    Driving

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Great on the long motorway journeys (cruise control) and the tyres give good assurance across country.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Perhaps could be a little better from zero, but good welly across the range.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Starting problem on first day(!) but no problems since.

    I love it (liked it from launch in '94) but then I've got a TR7 FHC too!

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    No aches or pains! Just get's a little sticky with the leather in hot weather.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    5 out of 5 5.0

    I've still got it! Has the extra deterrent of a big steering wheel lock.
