    Bit of a Grandad's car. Still nice looking though.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    The Recaro seats are very supportive. Ride can be a little hard at speed.

    Security

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Reasonable Rover security. Sometimes goes off on it's own.

    Service

    3 out of 5 3.0

    They didn't mistake it for a diesel. Were fairly helpful but costly.

    Wastegate pipe snapped off... instantly gutless. Driving too fast caused intake on turbo to come unattached... instantly gutless + awful noise.

    Exhaust system completely replaced... pretty much down to wrong part being fitted previously!
