  • Economy

    Value

    4 out of 5 4.0

    All the toys, looks and performance for a reasonable price.

    Costs

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Eats fuel (about 18mpg). Dealers can charge extortionate amounts and just like other Insurance Group 20 cars, there are some expensive parts.

  • On the road

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Sticks to corners and powers away on straights. 4WD, 4WS, switchable suspension modes make for a precise, if robotic, drive.

    Performance

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Up there with the Porsches. Twin Turbos ensure quick power delivery. Blisteringly fast, long ratio box and V6 engine make for big speeds.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Drive it hard and eventually it will break. Drive it in moderation and it shouldn't need anything more than normal servicing. Idle car a few moments before setting off and getting out. Turbo Timer!

    You will always get looked at. Get used to smiles from girls and slander from their boyfriends. Pretentious to the maximum, but it's YOURS.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Leather interior. Driver's seat electric pack with side support and lumbar support. Can raise/lower the front and back of the seat cushion. You can't fail not to be comfy. Surprisingly fits 4 adults.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Not high risk apparently. Mind you, any Policeman worth his salt is going to stop one of these if seen at night.
