Adequate in real world conditions.

Living with it
Reliability
Split radiator and a seized rear brake caliper. Nothing else in 8 years and 90,000 miles.
Image
Pay homage to the designer.
Comfort
Check your fillings before driving on uneven roads, otherwise very comfortable.

Security and Service
Security
I've got a Honda alarm on mine, but always fit an Autolock 2000 as I suspect it's not up to much.
Service
Cannot fault main dealer service, but it's not cheap.
