    Type of dealer you bought from?

    Didn't buy from a dealer

    No

    £900

    When did you buy the car?

    February 2007

    Did you get a good deal and why?

    OK considering the car had a perfect history. But I had to pay a further £400 to get the car serviced and cam-belt changed so on top of the £900 it wasn't that much of a bargain.

    Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

    Huge amount of car for the money. Full service history.

    What was the dealer like?

    Private seller, I trusted him - otherwise I wouldn't have bought the car.

  • Driving it

    4 out of 5 4.0

    What's it like to drive?

    A bit of a barge round town, but good cruiser. Terrific handling on any roads, really enjoyable on A roads and a great engine that makes a great noise and loves to pull at high revs. Had to sell it because I have a neck problem and something about the shape of the seats gave me a headache driving it, no matter how I adjusted the seats. Shame, I miss it. Was thirsty too though, average 26mpg.

    What's it like to park?

    OK
