Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Quite good if rattling doesn't annoy you. Awful mpg for what it is and the tax again is stupidly expensive, the same as my TT.
What's it like to park?
You can't see a thing through the back "windscreen" but it's small so easily parked other than that
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Yes, the alternator broke and as everything in the bonnet is ridiculously placed it was very expensive to fix. Door handles would randomly become really stiff so that my friend couldn't even open the passenger door. CD player cuts out if the heaters have been on for more than 10mins. Hot air will still blow out for 5 or so minutes even if you've turned the dial to cold. Generally just a rubbish car.
What's most practical about your car?
Boot isn't a bad size for a 2 seater convertible.
