    Rocks and rolls, especialy when laden, but driving position good. Seats could be more supportive.

    Rev it and it goes ok. Under powered. Gear ratios too short.

    Brakes failed 3 times. Trim parts failed 5 times. Seat height adjustment worn, hitting driver as you go over bumps. Alarm has a mind of its own. Poor engine management. Electrics rating poor.
