Economy
Value
Can pull out some big discounts from dealers. Internet car broker can also produce further savings. Depreciation could be a problem.
Costs
Drinks petrol quite a bit if you floor it all over. Otherwise, it's not too bad.

On the road
Driving
Excellent. Good view of the road, good seat position. Steering wheel height can be adjusted. Plenty of space in the front.
Performance
Scorching. Put your foot down in first and you're pinned back in your seat. 0-60 in 8sec. Gets to a 100 easily and is eager to go more. Not quite as quick as the 182's of this world though, but it won't be too far behind.

Living with it
Reliability
No problems so far.
Image
No over-the-top styling here, which is to my taste. 16inch alloys as standard, colourcoded bumpers, roof spoiler, chrome exhaust, sporty wing mirrors.
Comfort
Got the heated leather interior with mine - totally superb. Ride is nice and smooth too.

Security and Service
Security
Immobiliser, ultra-sonic alarm, deadlocks. Pretty good package. With a decent steering lock on, you can sleep easy in the knowledge your SRi will be there in the morning.
