  • Economy

    Value

    5 out of 5 5.0

    £1100! Scruffy bodywork but many panels bolt off and it's easy to get bits off eBay.

    Costs

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Not too economical on petrol. Insurance a tad expensive! Home servcing possible though.

  • On the road

    Driving

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Fun! Even with an auto, rear wheel drive can make things interesting!

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    150bhp and lots of torque, auto box saps a lot of it though…

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Old but still strong German engineering at its best!

    I love it! So much better than boring, boring modern cars which all look the same.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Comfy seats, good driving position - zero stars for the back seats though!

  • Security and Service

    Security

    1 out of 5 1.0

    What security? - need to retro fit bits or rely on one one wanting to nick it!

    Service

    5 out of 5 5.0
