    Value

    5 out of 5 5.0

    A lot of power to the pound.

    Costs

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Don't bother with genuine parts, you can get the identical part from Ford for much less.

  • On the road

    Driving

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Dry - never had better, never will. Wet - be careful, very careful! (PAS is a must).

    Performance

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Awesome. The only thing that can beat it is a large bike.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    4 out of 5 4.0

    I don't recommend you use this as an every day car, although they run better with regular use.

    Wow.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Fantastic, but a little noisy on a long motorway run.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Too easy to get into even with roof up. Otherwise, fine.

    Service

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Main dealer prices are extreamly high (parts & labour). I suggest you use them or the service stamp only.
