    Good value considering the petrol prices are what they are, I would recommend this as it is a quality coupe as far as coupes go.

  • On the road

    Driving

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Initially very sharp and responsive but as time went on the clutch became hard and still.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Initially a very good drive but after the clutch becomes hard it becomes a problem to drive and isn't as nippy but don't be confused still as fast as most coupes on the road.

    The seats hug you and make you feel loved, thoroughly recommend going for the extra of full leather seats, you would not be disappointed.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Good but initially it had problems when one door would not lock and had to be locked manually, and that would cause the alarm to go off.

    Service

    the manufacturers ensure you can not go to any one but themselves and they charge extortionate prices, they often make u feel like its them or nothing
