Living with it
Reliability
Never failed me yet - even though I drive it hard.
Image
I bought it because it's very rare. Never fails to turn heads. It's completely standard and looks great.
Comfort
Seating bearable, but have no creature comforts. Cabin reasonable in back, but that's not why you would buy this car.

Security and Service
Security
Immediately bought a Thatcham 1 alarm. Has been broken into, but that's my fault for leaving the stereo in the car.
Service
Good, but my dealer is extremely expensive.
