    Lots of body roll, too soft, steering heavy without PAS.

    Still looks fairly good, new model much the same so hasn't dated as badly. Sport models lift the range.

    Comfort

    2 out of 5 2.0

    No height adjust on front seats, steering wheel off set, gear stick too close to legs, do buy if over 6ft, uncomfortable, esp on long journeys.
