Driving
Pulls very well in all gears, much more useable than the CTR, composed ride, you will be impressed.
Performance
Superb torque thoughout the range, very easy to exceed legal limits. Corners flat and predictably. Lots of fun to use every day.

Living with it
Reliability
Overall good. Seat dealers will replace the coil with an uprated unit and extend its warantee to 5 years!
Image
A rarer choice than the CTR, big wheels and low stance give an aggressive look.
Comfort
Very nice up front, good climate control. Tight for space in the rear behind me (6'4'') Good boot space.
