    Driving

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Sticks like glue, fast acceleration and will beat any "boy racer" XR2/3 or Nova - Motorway driving is frustrating, could do with a 6-speed box.

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Hard suspension (but i like it). Hard work on the motorway - the engine revs too highly at 70 to be comfortable.
