Very good in general. A few niggles- AC needs regular charging, brake discs prone to corrode, electrics are a bit suspect

It is a practical, reliable and affordable everyday supercar with heritage

As comfortable as you can expect. Rear seats only really for kids and front seats can be a be cramped for taller individuals.
