    Good late ones inevitably getting scarcer with less opportunity to haggle.

    Economical (50mpg), but insurance seems a bit steep.

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Suspension is very soft (to the point of sickness), but can be firmed up with non-OEM dampers. Good grip, neutral steering.

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Keen engine, gears are well spaced.

  • Living with it

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Very good if driver and passengers are less than 1.75m, probably a bit tight on headroom (especially in back) if you're taller. Seats comfy but not enough lateral support. Pedals quite close together.
