  • Economy

    Value

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Quite expensive, but worth every penny compared to other cars in its class on the market.

    Costs

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Not cheap, but what do you expect. Tyres at £140 each were a bit of a shock.

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Despite delivering 130bhp and great performance, nothing suggests what's under the bonnet. The walnut dash may appeal to the older customer, but looks out of place next to the neon blue dials.

    Comfort

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Fully ajustable seats make the driving position excellent. Great dials and climate control works very well.
