    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Slight turbo lag. Good handling. Very good brakes. Slight understeer when pushed hard. Needs respect in wet conditions.

    Performance

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Surprisingly fast. It would take an expensive sports car to show it up. Cruises up motorways. Capable of 150mph.
