Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Easy enough to drive once you're used to it, the clutch is quite heavy as the cable runs near the exhaust manifold which dries the lubricant off. Steers realy nicely and can have a play with l/o oversteer. Driving position is a bit weird though

Good all round visibility and just generally easy to park
