  • Driving it

    5 out of 5 5.0

    What's it like to drive?

    Amazing. 240BHP in a light car, long bonnet. Can feel exactly what the wheels are doing, handling is fantastic although you have to be awake in the wet. Power and hitting 9,000rpm is addictive. Cabin in snug and everything feels so tight and alive!

    Unless you are an idiot, its as easy as any other car.
