Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Nothing apart from usual wear and tear and scheduled services. Exhaust went but was replaced at kwik fit with a very Janspeed stainless steel one. highly recommended - if you like the noise...
What's most practical about your car?
Not a bad amount of room, I've been told that its quite cramped in the back, but I don't drive it from there!!! ;) Oh BTW its a 2005 54 reg new shape one
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
The Janspeed s/s exhaust. Helps give the car the oomph the styling needs. As well as some Lexus rear lights bought cheap off ebay.
