Driving it
What's it like to drive?
lots of power and good torque for its small engine size. Handles as good as my mk1 gti but alot quicker. Can be alittle noisey on the motorway but thats more the sports exhausts fault.
What's it like to park?
The only time when I wish I had power steering in this car. Sometimes visibility through that tinted section at the back can be difficult. Other than that its small and easy to park.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Rear right calipar was binding. replaced for £90. The odd bulb goes as water gets iinto the rear light units. Other than that nothing. Starts 1st time, everything works, revs perfectly.

Got a futon in it once.Its pretty comfortable though the back seats are pointless unless you have no legs.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Has full electrics which makes a change from my Mk1 golf gti which had just a steering wheel
