On the road
Driving
It's worth owning just to see the faces of some so called hot hatch drivers when grandads car blows them off the light's
Performance
Amazing for the price fast as you like yet refined if you need it. Corners are a bit wishy washy until you learn the car sticks to the tarmac. Could do with better traction control very scary in the wet if you accelerate too quickly!!!

Living with it
Reliability
Tends to eat front tyres Michelins seem to last better than the standard tyres. Short journeys on a regular basis tends to kill the exhaust system with the water build up. Air Con no one has got mine working yet in the last 2 years!!!!

Typical Q car 200 BHP park it anywhere no thief knows what it is (most assume its a diesel reps car must have same thought process as hot hatch drivers!!!)
Comfort
Its a Rover old men like comfort and who can blame them? Its nice on a long journey still feel fresh at the end of it.
