Lacks PAS, but is easy to drive.

Reliability
Not many problems yet, I hope!
Image
Standard shape is dated and not that good. Mine looks a lot better than the standard model, i.e. alloys, bodykit and respray.
Comfort
Had bucket seats put in, but the previous seats were ok for comfort.

Security
Basic security is shockingly bad. As car is modified, had Cat 1 alarm and immobliser put in myself.
