Economy
Value
Tremendous fun for the money - cost me £10,000.
Costs
Pretty good really. After 18 months it's needing new rear tyres and some work on the brakes but everything else was done under warranty.

Performance
Fun - but watch the back end when you accelerate away in the wet!

Living with it
Reliability
Starts first time, every time. Starting to need some work though at 48,000 miles (brakes).

Look at me, I'm in a sportscar!
Comfort
Not too bad. I'm 6ft 1 and I can fit in ok. Much better than the MX-5 for larger people.

No-one's pinched it yet!
Service
MG Lookers Stockport. The salesman said he'd replace the driver's door skin as there was a crack in the speaker housing - they wriggled out of this. I wouldn't buy another car from ths dealer.
