  • Driving it

    4 out of 5 4.0

    What's it like to drive?

    Handles surprisingly well - easily passes the 'moose test'. Helped here by unusually low profile tyes, stiff suspension and ESP (a novelty in 2003). On the negative side the car skips over bumps, and transmits shocks to the occupants - mostly absorbed by the good seats.

    What's it like to park?

    Fairly easy.
