    Reliability

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Make sure you check the timing belt. Mine just went and the RAC said it was a common problem. However, when they asked what garrage I use, it occured to me that I don't use one, as the car very rarely breaks down.

    I'm large, but feel very comfortable behind the wheel.

    Engine

    Timing belt snapped today. It's gonna be expensive. Otherwise, no probs in 4 years.

    Where the driver's seat joins to the runner that moves the seat backward and forward, this has sheared off twice, needing to be welded. I am large, but not massive.
