Fast, but with all 16-valves, power comes in higher in the rev range, at about 3500rpm.

Living with it
Reliability
All-round well built car, but door handles are weak and will probably need replacing at some point in your time of ownership.
Image
Great looks. Not your like a shopping trolley with a bodykit.
Comfort
Great seats and driving position. Everything easily within your reach.

Security and Service
Security
C/L as standard and has a security device which stops the doors being opened from the inside when locked from the outside, which stops the use of a slim jim and opening doors if a window is broken. I also have an after-market alarm and immobiliser.
Service
Stay clear of dealerships - prices are very steep.
