    Value

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Second hand is very good, buying new meant I paid for depreciation, still best at the price point.

    Clutch was a shock.

  • On the road

    Driving

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Great ride, hangs on in corners, chassis is not upset by poor quality roads (like most of them!) Best out of the factory dampening I have ever had.

    3 out of 5 3.0

    130bhp is only just enough.
